Ok, the idea is you have to describe y in x number of words., as coherantly as possible. Then you set the next challenge. But if people start getting silly (e.g. describe a blade of grass in 292,035,748 words) then you can ignore those ones.

Quote:

Describe Nothing in 67 words

There is a big void. But there is not, as there is no form of existence in which to have the void. It is not black, as colour exists. It is incomprehensible to the human mind, while being one of our greatest fears. What is notable is not what is there, but what is not, never has been, and never will be there. It is merely Nothing.

Courage is doing what you believe, when everything else tells you not too. Courage is not thinking, it is taking action despite opposing pressure, or apathy. Courage is surprisingly undefinable.

Sexuality is about how you feel about yourself, how you feel about others, how others feel about you and how others feel about themselves. It is inextricably linked to our sense of self and is thought by some to be predetermined. Others disagree and say it is a matter of choice. Who really knows for sure eh? No one.

From the Tamagotchi to the Sony Aibo robotics is big business. The word "Robot" comes from the Czech word "worker". However can we really call robots our workers now given that they control so much? The dystopian view of robots taking over society may yet come true as they control ever more.

One of my favourite novels is Catch 22, published in 1961, written between 1955 and 1961. You know a book is a classic when a phrase such as "catch 22" goes into common usage. It is about the absurdities of war and is as relevant today as it was when it was written.
