It's not just "weird" or "evil" or a "spriritual gift" or whatever, it's something real and quantifiable, and I want to understand it. <BR/><BR/>Not to offer TMI, but it also ebbs and flows with my cycle, so there is some sort of hormonal component to it. Maybe I'm full of quarks and charms at that time of the month, and they open me up to information otherwise unavailable to me. Who knows.<BR/><BR/>And <B>Timothy</B>, yes, this is yet another reminder that the universe and our partaking of it is a complex thing of mysteries we are just beginning to scratch the surface of. (And yeah, I'm glad I got home okay, too. As unsettling as the whole experience was, I did feel sort of protected by the situation, somehow.)Elizabeth McQuernhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17758117792901579774noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12657434.post-33930633604617214172007-10-07T14:26:00.000-05:002007-10-07T14:26:00.000-05:00Scary as that must have been, it's a little event ...Scary as that must have been, it's a little event that demonstrates how amazing and strange the universe really is.<BR/><BR/>And if it was a warning, I'm glad you got home okay.Timothy Carterhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08982874914735092331noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12657434.post-28235736563564773062007-10-07T08:47:00.000-05:002007-10-07T08:47:00.000-05:00Hmm, maybe you could have some fun with this by be...Hmm, maybe you could have some fun with this by becoming the Amazing Criswell of stand-up comedy, and lobbing ridiculous predictions at your audience?<BR/><BR/>On another note, being the anti-supernaturalist kind of guy that I am, I've always wondered if we'll someday find a scientific explanation for these sorts of premonitions. I believe that they're real, but I don't believe that they come from God or the Devil, or some other spiritual being. I think they're a natural phenomenon. Perhaps a manifestation of some aspect of quantum physics.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12657434.post-23063610436418278272007-10-05T22:58:00.000-05:002007-10-05T22:58:00.000-05:00Sage - I thought you were going to say the Roussea...Sage - I thought you were going to say the Rousseau painting reminded you of being back in 1870-1914, since your blog lists you as being 250 years old. :)Elizabeth McQuernhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17758117792901579774noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12657434.post-79965340887094251232007-10-05T22:56:00.000-05:002007-10-05T22:56:00.000-05:00I know Bubs, weird, huh?
