ZenDog: You found me out. That seems to be my question.

For example:

Editable Poem What did we learn?

The Caribouski: What did we learn?

or even Mead: What was learned?

Maybe you should ignore/mute/hush me.

On the other hand, "What can be unlearned?" is also a worthy question.

I think it's the fact that most things (if not all) can't be unlearned that gives such attraction to the evangelical christian dogma. You can be "born again" with the utterance of a phrase. One of my all time favorite lyrics is from Wilco, I know I would die, if I could come back new. -most if us would reach for the erase button at times, if we could.

We can't though.

the Editable Poem link, http://hubski.com/pub?id=1233980, seems to pull up a blank page . . . as does the Mead link, http://hubski.com/pub?id=1383970

the Caribouski link goes to what appears to be a mass emailing - don't we call that spam?

I will not be muting/hushing/ignoring you anytime soon, for surely, you bear watching . . .

EEEP, for some reason extra zeros got attached to the other two. Check them out BRIEFLY (just to show you that they indeed exist).

Hubski Drink Club - Club Mead: What Was Learned? http://hubski.com/pub?id=138397

Editable Poem #2: What Did We Learn? http://hubski.com/pub?id=123398

The Caribouski mailing was to all the participants... not exactly spam.

ZenDog: I found this shrugging emoticon ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ on an otherwise insulting remark that called one of my favourite hubskinners an insulting name. I didn't like the comment, but I liked the emoticon. I also like your EYEBALLS emoticon. There's much art in the keyboard.

Meanwhile, I do enjoy bear watching.

EDIT: Welcome to Hubski. The rest will be via pm.

I'm not very good at text art - which is really too bad because text art is so cool.

I've seen a bear, in person, in the wild. Just once. Scared the shit out'a me. Scared the bear more though - and the reason I know that is true is because the bear ran way way faster than I did.

haha!
