Jan 12 2012: The JetBlue gods were kind to me, gave me 3 seats across! Slept nearly 5 hours on a 5-hour flight. Missed my snacks and drinks! 8929
Jan 12 2012: Old people like to play games, the same ones over and over. It means they've blocked themselves in and run out of ideas. 8930
Jan 12 2012: Insight accompanied by anger is not insight. 8931
Jan 13 2012: Complete self-confidence is usually a fraud, a mask for deep insecurities. 8932
Jan 13 2012: It is not insight when you bemoan you're own dysfunctions but keep them anyway. 8933

Jan 13 2012: A successful relationship isn't merging. It is sharing of independent viewpoints. 8935
Jan 13 2012: Emotional blocks are when we become invested in our past mistakes and can't move beyond them. 8936
Jan 13 2012: Some relationships are black holes: You dump energy in but get little out. 8937
Jan 13 2012: Every relationship is an investment. There can be no reward without some commitment of capital. 8938
Jan 13 2012: What people say and how they really feel are two different things. Part of an intimate relationship is being able to read both. 8939

Jan 14 2012: When you say something in RL, there are all sorts of nonverbal spins you can put on it. In cyberspace, all that nuance is stripped away. 8974
Jan 14 2012: On advantage of cyberspace over RL is a long response cycle. You have more time to reflect and analyse instead of just a knee-jerk reaction. 8975

Jan 14 2012: The implied delusion of many a love song is: "I don't have to solve my own problems because love will solve them for me." 8990
Jan 14 2012: Love songs come in two varieties: "You rescued me," and "You treated me like shit." They are the two natural ends of the same relationship. 8991

Jan 15 2012: "Active passivity" is when your body is very busy but you take little initiative beyond the patterns already established. 8997

Jan 15 2012: The natural product of overstimulation and overprogramming is passivity. You have no time to initiate events, only respond to them. 8999
Jan 15 2012: Something is an "addiction" if you do it not so much for its own reward as for the anxiety you feel when you don't do it. 9000
Jan 15 2012: Whenever an ad campaign invites you to "Make a Difference" the proposed action is usually trivial and benefits mainly the advertiser. 9001

Jan 16 2012: If a relationship fails, it is YOUR responsibility. You chose it. You can't blame the other person for being who they were all along. 9031

Jan 16 2012: Mistakes are the most awesome learning devices! Like sticking your finger in a candle flame, you never forget the lesson. 9033

Jan 16 2012: NUDE, NUDE, NUDE! It's a lot easier to ogle nude people when you're nude yourself. 9038
Jan 16 2012: I never had a previous interest in getting an all-over tan, but now seems like the right time. Hang out for an hour or so, see what happens. 9039
Jan 16 2012: The only trouble with this nude beach: 90% male. Ewwww! 9040
Jan 16 2012: The thing they don't tell you about nude beaches: There are NO entry requirements. Most of those naked bodies you really don't want to see. 9041
Jan 16 2012: Most of few female specimens are sagging and oversunned. More like National Geographic than Playboy. 9042
Jan 16 2012: You want to see a photo of my willy? You ain't getting it! 9043
Jan 16 2012: Water temp is a little chilly today—about 70°—but swimmable. I just did! Neener, neener, you Northerners! :-p 9044
Jan 16 2012: Air temp is a little chilly too when the clouds block the sun. Almost enough to drive me to non-nudity. 9045
Jan 16 2012: Never mind! The sun came back! Still nude! 9046
Jan 16 2012: One thing you notice at a nude beach is the wide variety of equipment. Boobs and willies run the gamut from massive knockers to little nubs. 9047
Jan 16 2012: Fairly attractive couple just put down a blanket near me. She adds a little spice to the mainly male wasteland. 9048

Jan 16 2012: Back in my little nudist colony, which is restricted to about 1/4 mile of the beach. Pants off! 9053
Jan 16 2012: Miami sand is a lot harder to jog on than Santa Barbara sand. Too fluffy. #firstworldproblems 9054
Jan 16 2012: Environment hasn't improved since I left. Some interesting ladyflesh has set up camp nearby, but they're remaining clothed. Abomination! 9055
Jan 16 2012: The sun comes and goes. Not nudist-friendly when it goes. 9056
Jan 16 2012: This nudist beach would be fantastic if I could only acknowledge my latent homosexuality, but I am still deeply repressed. 9057
Jan 16 2012: Bums to the right of me, willies to the left, here I am! 9058
Jan 16 2012: Gradually coming to a disturbing revelation: Nude beaches are BORING! 9059
Jan 16 2012: I don't see much hope for the whole franchise unless they can improve the admissions standards. 9060
Jan 16 2012: My hopes for an all-over tan are fading fast. Not enough sun. Getting ready to throw in the towel. 9061

Jan 16 2012: I feel no great need to photograph my nude beach. Google "Haulover Beach nude" subtracting all the beautiful people. http://t.co/kChnCOPi 9065
Jan 16 2012: Nudity is always sexier in the imagination than in real life. That's why bikinis are better than nothing at all. 9066
Jan 16 2012: Turns out there's nothing LESS erotic than a nude beach. It's human morphology, nothing more. 9067
Jan 16 2012: When nothing is left to the imagination, you kind of wish for some imagination. 9068
Jan 16 2012: Regarding bikini design, less is usually more, until you reach a tipping point where less is less and you say, "That's just gross!" 9069
Jan 16 2012: Still, I haven't given up entirely on nudism. Perhaps Haulover in the summer would offer a better class of clientele. More perky boobs! 9070
Jan 16 2012: Better yet, the Riviera! I could live by the maxim that the best nude beach is the one I haven't visited and search my whole life for it. 9071
Jan 16 2012: Little bit of sunburn on the head and shoulders. Kinda tragic. :-p (Don't worry, Willy's just fine.) 9072
Jan 16 2012: Take away clothes and sexual attraction and the human body is this weird, furless, gangly contraption. If I were an alien, I'd go "Eeeeek!" 9073
Jan 16 2012: Unlike other animals, humans wear their sexual apparatus right out front, both obvious and vulnerable. No wonder we insist on clothes! 9074

Jan 17 2012: As a concerned male, I must voice my concern about the thong bikini bottom. That's gone too far! The traditional 1960s cut is preferred. 9083
