Even though I just ran for an hour, I am not nearly awake enough to follow the last few pages of posts...

I've noticed that most professionals tend to associate with their peers. Doctors have doctor friends. Lawyers have lawyer friends. Etc.

Isn't this because these people are already together a lot of time in their professional time?

I have a lot of biologists as friends, just because I got to know them very well over the years. But I also have a lot of physicists as friends, because in my old lab there were many of them and I got to know them too very well. I can talk about other stuff than just biology, I don't think it's necessary that my friends understand my work.

When it comes to people I want to hang out with I prefer it to be interesting people who enjoy life and have broad experiences. That's what's important to me. However at my age I find making friends difficult. This is partially to do with not having kids.

Watching the US Govt shutdown. This is so stupid. I won't talk politics here, but I feel like hauling the leaders of both parties into a room and beating some sense into them. I feel terrible for those non essential govt workers who have to sit at home until this mess is resolved. It is such a sham and a crying shame all around...

I find US politics pretty nasty these days. In general I final all politics along the same lines, even here in 'cultured' UK. We just recently had our right-wing newspaper take a crack at the oppositions (Labour) father who's dead. How low can one go really?
 
Re: WPC 20K Post Challenge - You Ready?!

sadly me too :shocked:.... they need to expand their criteria of friends!

Sometimes it's not that easy. There's lots of factors behind why people choose to be around people from their own professions.
 
Re: WPC 20K Post Challenge - You Ready?!

So what's in a name? My former ex (now my gf) spent most of our phone convo tonight debating the virtues of what names mean to kids and such. I learned that she is fine with a routine I'll describe in a second. So far, my brother has kept our overall tradition alive. My dad, my brother, myself and now my nephew have the dame initials: D.D. My brother gets to name any boys he has with the their first name starting with the letter "D". My sister in law's names start with a "K", so both my nieces have names starting with the letter "K". In my case, if my gf and I have kids, the girl names would start with and "L". Naming is complicated. Lol.

I think the most important aspect of a name is for it not to be too strange. I find some of those more 'interesting' names the celebs give their kids quite depressing and I feel sorry for them. I have a middle name that I haven't quite figured out why I have it. I asked my mother and she says it just sounded good. I don't quite get that. :P

Damn. Cannot even crack the top posters list. Ironically at this moment all the top posters are regular posters on this thread. That says alot...

We have taken control of WPC. Please do not adjust your set. :P

I have my first name because my parents liked it, and my second name because it sounds good with my family name. A little tradition in our family is, that the oldest son always has the name of his father (I think my brother is the 6th). But my oldest brother doesn't have a son so far, maybe this tradition will soon be over.
