Person Using Chi Energy !! it's Impossible ?!?!
« Reply #140 on: 13/09/2009 21:01:26 »

I'm basking in the glorious accomplishment of a great new look for the diner!


       


And the new chef introduced yummy soft shell crabs to the menu. The superb sliders remind me of my youth in NYC where you could get 3 hamburgers for a Quarter (0.149901 GBP)!

Life is good!

Sulcata a piece of the marginated of the pizza for you to nibble at while you walk around the horsefield contemplating your next post.

BTW I am impressed with your chelonian knowledge. You have passed the testudine.

Quite frankly, I am running out of ideas, I need something to spur me on

Many thanks for the compliment! It's not easy keeping up with the founder of TFF! Quite intimidating actually. So I've been doing some crash reading [:)]

As to new ideas, I think you did it right - above - by combining equestrian, testudinic [sp?], doggified, snakelike, whatever!

The mane thing - to use your great expression - is to have fun. And to be somewhat educational. So if no ideas are forthcoming, just hold off until the brainstorm hits. And if it's a long time, I'll just go back to O-sole-O-mio like I did before [;D]

I've enjoyed re-reading the posts. And it's been an amazing educational experience for me. If the humor weren't there, I doubt I would have been motivated to learn more about turtles, for example! And hopefully there's a mini-education here for others who are brave enough to saunter by!

Fangs again!

Any woman would be proud to say her mann took up the challenge and instead of russian about like a boxed in headless chicken, stood his ground.

You may retire undefeated, but please, don't celebrate with turtle soup!!!

Ah! So there you are C4M, you've come in right at the end, not very punctual eh! Besides, I think we've just about milked this subject. Or at least we are teetering on the edge. We certainly seem to have picked the cream of the crop. I think we've urned our just rewards. So no need to churn it up again.

You can't butter us up with that cheesey grin. When it comes to puns, we're not cowards, we've just been put out to graze for while. To chew the cud so to speak. We both deserve a pat on the back for our fine efforts.

Wow, Don, this is the breast I've seen yet. And C4M is in rare form, too, I see. It seems like dairy, correction, I mean daily, that there's a superb response to this punishingly difficult cattle call!

Don't be offended, Don, but extraordinary claims (Pun count - 12) require extraordinary evidence, so my trusted assistant below just subjected your claim to my proprietary Pun-O-Meter® and it reported..........12!!! It's a one-liner report.



And at this rate, you might qualify for the 2010 Championship Pun Offs!

click on above link ..... and also Chi power is uned to make a person unconscious with out touching ??

How can it be ?
and where can I learn this ?
 
Not impossible - but rather improbable. What is called Chi-Energy seems to be just a ''state of mind''. Certain states of mind can in fact give us adrenaline rushes and various chemical imbalances within the brain. In fact, superhuman strength has been recorded many times in many history books - which actually depended on the state of mind.

The old saying, mind over matter is true, but in what sense is Chi-Energy used? I am not all familiar towards it, but it seems like a case of the state of mind. If it is not, then we are actually invoking some kind of energy within - and as far as i know, scientists are yet to prove such stimulus other than the brain network itself.

This "state of mind" discussion reminds me of the superhuman strength a frantic mother can muster to lift a car so that she can free her pinned-down and trapped son.

That's JUST WEIRD.

That was the same story I had in mind when i wrote this.

Now I don't believe in chi or anything, but I do believe their take on chi is a slight metaphysical interpretation of concrete nervous structures and relations within the human body. For example, they say they can feel your palm/hand and know where "distress" is in your body. Some organs can be in distress without conscious pain registering, though there may be other painless nerve signals being sent that manifest themselves in small almost imperceptible clenching of muscles in the hand.

Thousands of years ago Chinese monks were able to figure out that even in a normal person, by not having any sex, a male can have a slight increase in his intellectual function. When a monkish order has a few millennium to sit around and think about crap, you'd be surprised what revelations they can come up with =P


Coming back to the origins of this thread, I imported the quote above from my thread (POIS).

Interesting. I wonder if there is some useful material that can be gleaned from chi philosophy, even though the chi philosophy itself seems flawed or unscientific?

because the fact that someone believes something truly, is not something to be ridiculed.
well, i dont think so, and anyway, this is not the forum (if you will excuse the pun) to discuss such maters

So if you went into a boxing ring, you wouldn't expect to get punched? Just because someone believes in something does not make that something sacrosanct. If you believe in that stuff and keep it to yourself, well, that's fine - you're allowed life choices, naive as they may be. But if you express it in a public arena, especially on a science forum, expect it to be treated with the derision it deserves.

I don't go to boxing rings :P
but I see your point, perhaps I should stay silent in such matters.
I guess that you're right when you say that its not sacrosanct, and perhaps its not...
