. . . and I wonder why Hallmark won't hire me. :)

Well, maybe you could still get a job writing fortune cookie fortunes. They don't have to be good, or for that matter, even relevant (I got one that said "Happy Bar Mitzvah, Jerry" one time - my name is not Jerry and I wasn't attending a bar mitzvah).
Back after a long absence - whew, too busy at work!

Okay, going on a limb here.......I do believe in souls, however.......I have always thought souls were what we become in the after life - so with that isn't a "soulmate" a person we find in the after life? I have never believed in a soulmate while living in the present. I do believe there is a "lifemate" for me here in the now, but a "soulmate" for in the after life.....

Souls and the afterlife? Well, like the song says, "If there's life after this, I'll be waiting there with a warm wet kiss." Or something to that effect.

Wouldn't it suck if souls and soul mates existed. Just think, somewhere on the planet 1 perfect match for you existed. You know your life won't be totally complete until you find this one person among the 2.5 billion choices (5 billion if you are bi) Even if you could meet a potential match every minute it could take over 4700 years. So if soul mates do exists - the odds of someone finding theirs is so staggeringly small that it's best not to think about it. This also means that the odd of someone you think is your soul mate, actually being your soul mate is just as amazingly small so it's probably just self delusion.

. . . and I wonder why Hallmark won't hire me. :P

However, you're a smart man, 'Hawk. When bank robber Willie Sutton was asked why he robbed banks, he replied "that's where the money is." Which explains why if you're trying to find a soulmate you work where you do! :D

I've concluded there's not one for me, so I just look for dive buddies and that way, I get to control my own remote. :unsure:

A new fantasy may be developing... one of my dive buddies has asked for two dates. Could be the "real thing" (a date that is). I'll keep you posted. If that doesn't work, I have another fanta-sea brewing in Singapore.
