I am sorry this topic has absolutely nothing to do with swimming, but that is the weirdest thing that ever happened to me and who else would I share it with but my beloved swimming community :-)))
Anyways, here is what happened to me today.I went to Mall of America to do some shopping.I mean I finally set aside money to invest into something non-related to swimming.I am definitely not a shopaholic, but today I felt the urge to get into some new clothes.Well, afew hours after browsing that huge concentration of temptations I gathered quite e few purchases.To top it off I decided to get myself some cool jeans, so I ended up in one of the clothing shops.I had some trouble finding my size and I caught an eye of A GORGEOUS young lady that was working there and asked her to help me out(well, because she was so good-looking, I obviously had even more trouble finding stuff :-))).She turned out to be a sweet-heart and pretty much guided me through all my shopping experience at this little shop and I finally had 2 pair of jeans that I liked after trying out thousands of them(well, not exactly that many, but you know what I mean).So it was time for me to go, but I kinda felt reluctant to leave without having a little chat with that cutie.So I asked her name and stuff and we had a pleasant little conversation.Man, she told me to stop by some time to say hello :-)))Maybe she liked me?'Cause I surely liked her, lol:))
Anyways we finished talking, smiled to each other, wished each other good night and all those things and I headed out home thinking about nothing but that girl I just met.
Ok, guess what happened when I got home?I realised that the girl totally stole my brains at the moment when we were talking, BECAUSE I LEFT THE STRORE WITH THE JEANS IN MY HANDS FORGETTING(I MEAN FORGETTING!!!!) TO PAY FOR THEM!!!
OH my GOD!!!I never shoplift or anything of a kind and never ever anything like that happened to me!
Should I go back there tomorrow and pay or is that going to look weird?The most amazing part is that the jeans had those magnetic devices but they obviously never got activated or whatnot...
WOW, I mean WOOOOOOOOOOW.I must have really liked the girl, 'cause my brain was obviously paralized for that moment...I promised her I would stop by again :-)))She told me when she works.I was trying to be a decent guy and not jump into the whole "Can I have your number" thing right away, lol.
Man, all I have to say is : women are trouble , or from the woman's view on the situation it could be: men are so stupid!!!

the thread steered towards set theory and mathematics when I defending Muppets assertion that if Women = trouble and men are not equal to women then men are not equal to trouble......I defended it when a certain breaststroker medicine man (just joking of course Allen!!) claimed the reasoning was flawed somehow....I probably should have left it alone....but you know me....I am incapable of self restraint in most situations....LOL!! We never really left the original thread topic though....which is women are trouble....whivch taken in a strictly mathematical sense translates to women = trouble......and all of our debates have been centered around this topic....so I can argue that the thread topic was never really hijacked....we just explored other ways to analyze the original thread topic...which I feel is still within the rules of thread posting etiquette.
Also it is easier to compare physical objects as "Not equal" as opposed to comparing them as "equal".....but yes, 2 things that start off as almost identical (whatever that really means?) should remain somewhat identical as long as they are subjected to similar type future events....If one is smashed in a wreck and the other is not...then I think that is an unfair comparison as an analogy to what I was talking about.

p.s. I will correct myself from an earlier posting when I say that the law of transitivity for equality ONLY holds in the mathematical universe (and not the physical universe)....there are some exceptions.....Equals is usually interpreted in a way that would not fit the physical universe in most situations....but if you interpret two sets as equal based on a weaker equivalence relation like 1-1 onto mappings, then we can say all sets of 10 cars are equal to one another...etc...but for the most part, I don't think "equals" translates very well in the physical world. And although calculus is about approximating things to some extent...its still different than what you are suggesting, because the kind of approximating that calculus entails involves the notion of an infinitessimal (something that is not present in the real physical world)....an infinitessimal distance between two objects is still infinitely times smaller than the planck length which is the shortest possible length allowed in the physical universe according to quantum mechanics.
Oh and I am sorry to hear about your dry socket ordeal...sounds very painful......eats tons of hydrocodone....thats what I did when I had an extrememly infected tooth go bad.
