So yeah all this bs talk from the guys just makes it worse for us readers and posters!! BB house main goal has always been to torture the HG's and now the live feeds and BBAD are to torture US!!! :funny:
not knowing is always worse than knowing!

Got that right! LOL
I probably didn't explain myself well, what I meant is that Sharon was telling Adam about opening the book to give guidance but I'm not sure Adam understood what it meant and he might think it was more like going to a fortune teller for advice, KWIM?

Isn't that what they tell you to do with the DICTONARY? open the book to any page, point to a random place, read the word , learn the definition and use it that day in a conversation.
The only thing heckle and jeckle learned from the Bible and remembered was CONCUBINE!

:funny: That's what I mean, they don't have a clue what reading the bible can teach you, I don't think it means learning what a concubine is, although Ryan found passages that reinforced his thought that women are here to serve men. Idjit! :gaah:
I was just thinking about Ryan, I do believe that everyone has someone meant for just for them, maybe Jen is the one for Ryan. :duno:

Good God! I couldn't get to the new thread by the link -- good old Vista "Done but with errors on the page" in IE -- which is a major problem preventing me from using this computer for the online job I do seasonally; I'm currently (the last month) working with a great guy at tech support, as well as tinkering around, and it's a damned disaster. I hear that a class action suit by major corporations is in the works regarding MS and Vista -- what was the quote I read in The Week today? Got to get it for here.
Anyway, I clicked on "quote" and got myself to this page and hopefully will continue on.
I've missed posting here, enthralled as I am with computer bugs (:;) :pull :lala; especially as I have been aghast, as usual, at the dummies in BBH, and totally enjoying their attacking each other over "who it is who has the pre-existing relationship" from that HOH question that Ryan got right -- the same way Natallie did -- by dumb luck totally unrelated to any real answer.
I have more things to say and need to move on to another post ; before I do, I should say what I meant to:
Finding a passage in a book is called Bibliomancy (pronounced with the major stress on the 'om' with a short 'o' and minor stress on 'Bib' with a short 'i,' as in "bib." Chiromancy, another -omancy, is the $100 word for Palmistry. However, the -omancy related to books involves getting advice, a reading on present conditions, while the -omancy, of Palmistry involves reading the past present and future of an individual by studying the lines on, shapes in, condition of his/her hand -- which would put it more into the realm of -ology, which involves pattern and logic, not random selections.
At any rate, Bibliomancy can be, and is, done with any book. I think even Sherlock Holmes resorted to finding guideposts in random selections in his library.
The Book, however is the Bible, from the Latin "Biblio," which may well come itself from The Book to mean all books.
Of course, in the BBH, the Bible is The Book, since there are no others there. At one point weren't they going over a BB Rules Book of some sort, looking for loopholes?
Just thought you'd like to know (and so ends another of my Way More Information Than Anyone Wanted to Know posts)

P.S. Myself? I use R.L.Wing's wonderful translation (with authentic, recognized, traditional Chinese ink paintings, many pre-Ching dynasty as illustrations for each of the 64 hexagrams) of the I Ching. ("I" pronounced "ee").
