Quite an impressive timeline.
It got me thinking about my own obsessions…
And yeah PLUTO is a planet!

LOL, Kiltak. Pluto needs to tap into its icy resolve and stand up for its rights!

BTW, looks like Earth got so steamed up that its polar ice caps have already just about melted.

The Obsessions meme sounds like fun! I think I’ll partipate! I’ll ping back to ya when I do.

Great list by the way. You can learn so much about people by examining their obsessions through the years!

Unfortunately, most of my passions have been short-lived. I used to dive into one thing to the exclusion of all else until I got sick of it, then move on to something else. Thus, I never got really good at music composition or performance, for instance. Nowadays, the responsibilities of family and work keep me from taking any other endeavor to any real depth.

Thanks, Sterling; I appreciate your thought.

But again I say, Wow! to all that stuff you studied! When I was that age, the only thing I was passionate about was getting out the school door!

I appreciate your open mindedness, Robert. As I’ve said before, the problems I have with some religion does not in any way disprove God or invalidate religion as a whole. I’m sure your experience is meaningful to you, and that’s what’s important.

*cough*cough*cough! All that dust that’s collected on top of this tag in the two months it’s been stewing over here! Geez, Chip, ya need to clean up the ol’ attic more often, man…

All I can say is… uh, Wow! I know I’ve been obsessed and/or passionate about some things, but nothing like the progression of stuff you’ve been through.

Sorry ’bout the religion thing, though. But I admit that sentiment is from my perspective. But it doesn’t minimize my admiration for what you’ve learned through it all.

Besides, in the end, everyone is responsible for their own choices. Thanks for participating, my friend!
