Life is as much a concept as it is a reality. Choose it, live it, take it or give it ... just try not let it pass you by. "It's life, Jim... but not as we know it." Dr Spock - Star Trek "Life ... don't talk to me about life" Marvin the Paranoid Android Hitch-Hikers Guide to the Galaxy "Life's like a movie. Write your own ending. Keep believing. Keep pretending." Kermit the Frog The Muppet Movie (1977) Kermit was based on Woody Allen, IMHO. "Always look on the bright side of life." Monty Python Classic British Comedy Team (1969-84) "Life is as tedious as a twice told-tale..." William Shakespeare English playwright Life can only be understood backwards; but it must be lived forward Soren Kierkegaard Danish philosopher (1813-55) Some more meanings : ...a lifetime... ..live and breathe ... ..live and learn ... ..the facts of life.. ..ten lives... Mankind has monopolised the term. You never hear "One hundred lives were lost in a chicken farm this week," do you? ..life is a state of being,as in city life and country life... ..life of 10 hours.. The duration something like a battery functions ...cannot do something for the life of... OR can't do something to save your life.Expresses confusion or limitation. ...do something for dear life... as in swam for dear life.. ... not on your life ... no way, Jose. ...a charmed life... ...as large as life... ...life is too short... ..live and let live... ...live life to the full... ...life of the party... ... come to life ... ...living the life of Reilly... ...Life in the fast lane... ...live the high life... ...a low life ... ...get a life... ...the bane of your life... ...put a life in someone's hands... ...a matter of life and death... ...a biography... ...Still life... ...life-like... ...life-size... regards [ November 07, 2003: Message edited by: HS Thomas ]

Two suggested references for the meaning of life: The Ultimate Hitchhikers Guide, by Douglas AdamsGodel, Escher, Bach: an Eternal Golden Braid, by Douglas R. Hofstatdter The first option is certainly the easier read. The second one will likely require Bawls. Why is it that they these two fellers have the same first name? Coincidence? I think not... poof!!! (Renee Descartes)

Kermit (the simple file transfer protocol) was based on Kermit (the frog), according to Susan Catchings, wife of Bill Catchings, who may have had something to do with Kermit, as the story goes. Click!  [ November 09, 2003: Message edited by: Howard Kushner ]
