But if it cannot stand up, wouldn't it be impossible for it to sit down? There would be far too much resistance...
No, as sitting would be the obvious thing for a mug of coffee, or a double leg amputee to do. Where you stand, depends on where you sit. Is recycling old jokes good for the environment? Smoked kippers. And herrings. And let nobody forget, the sardine. Or the Great Auk.
I guess you can argue that a mug can "stand" on its head, or "lie" on its side. But my point was more that something that cannot stand up, can't sit down either. If something is always "sitting", it's not really sitting. It just is. A default position is not the same as "sitting". Mr "Bull" might be an exception. When it comes to the "double leg amputee", the water gets kind of muddy, though. You have a point there. I feel very strongly about sitting, both in life and in trading.
Here's the deal. The school needs a 80% pass rate for grade levels. Unfortunately the principle cannot locates 23% of his students. Low attendance, etc... So if the teachers pass everyone who is attending class (77%, no matter how poorly they perform) this goal cannot be reached. Everybody gets a trophy. Yeahhhhh......
Naw...Here's the real deal: Dallas Mavericks vs Miami Heat Tuesday night. Laaadies and gentlemen...Let's get reeeady to ruuumble!
BUMP! I refuse to let this thread randomly die out.... Of course, if you heathens believe in natural selection, you might claim that its extinction is the diametrical opposite of random.
