What a piece of work you are! Your outlook isn't bleak, butyour perception of humanity is. You must be a laugh a minute at a party.
Strikes me that your opinion is that you are right and your outlook is bleak.
I used the MBTI (Myers Briggs Type nventory) a lot in my practice of ove 25 years. It never ceased amazed me how many people finally understood why there was so much turmoil within their family of origin, co-workers and friends.
Many commented, "So, that's why my husband/wife acts like that!"
Everything Travesty said is true. It comes from the Theory of Carl Jung, Swiss Psychiatrist/Psychotherapist, put into practice by Isabel Briggs Myers, an American author and co-creator of a personality inventory known as the Myers-Briggs Type Indicator. Briggs Myers created the MBTI with her mother, Katharine Cook Briggs.
It is a fascinating instrument. Many business/colleges/organizations use it to help people understand others and themselves.
For a short blurb on it, go to:

PS: ignore the detractors. This inventory is helpful.
Go and see "Fruitvale Station" and then tell me this Chief's reply is funny. He's a yuk a minute!
If you don't have a answer, make a joke out of it.
You just keep wishing! You might get what you wished for.
I had an experience where my strap saved my camera. I was on a boat and placed my camera on the floor. With my foot, I managed to edge my camera over the side of the boat. As it slid down the pontoon, all I could do was watch it all happen in slow motion, believing all was lost!
Just as it was about to hit the drink, the strap caught on a plug in the pontoon and the camera waited for me to lean over and be retrieved.
To quote the Taoist adage, Who knows what is good or bad.
I agree. The moor shot is superb!
I agree. The moor shot is superb!
If you have a cheap camera, don't worry about how safe the carrying strap is. If you do, get something worthwhile.
Just follow the money. Except in Tony Gwynn's case.
I recently purchased a Dell and had nothing but trouble from the get-go. I had trouble getting it delivered, I couldnt pick it up until 4 delivery tries had been exhausted and then I had to drive 15 miles to get it.
In the first 4 days I had it I had 3-4 blue screens and over 5 other crashes. I decided to send it back. Dell offered me $100 if I would keep the computer. I declined their offer and returned it.
I talked with a local computer repair business, asked if they had any suggestions and they quickly came back with Toshiba.
Toshiba has its own website:
www.toshibadirect.com where you can check out all the options and iterations of Toshiba computers.
They also have a refurbished division:
http://stores.ebay.com/toshibadirectstore. It is an eBay website, supported by Toshiba. They offer only the manufacturers warranty and no extended warranties. However, you can get an extended warranty, if you desire, from
www.squaretrade.com. Square Trade is the company which offers the extended warranties through Toshiba when you purchase a new one.
Most of the computers are marked down a minimum of $150. Happy hunting!
