D B Sweeney, that's a powerful mix, add some Opendeimindus and you are good to go  |

Openmindedness is a drink all on it's own, best drunk in small doses - dangerous if you consume too much, it leads to you seeing things that aren't really there

D B Sweeney, hence my signature But remember the saying - a closed mind is like a closed book; just a block a wood so you really should add a hint of Opendeimindus
flossy, jeees and I though you were the sensible one; well at least it's not heroine |

A closed book is not a block of wood though Cactus. It's a book 
totally different from a block of wood. It's like calling a car a lump of metal.
Having a closed mind doesn't achieve anything - being open to probability and possibility is at the heart of science.
Alternatively, believing everything that has a story attached to it or because it defies initial explanation is as bad as denying everything.
Not saying you do that though.

D B Sweeney,
A closed book is not a block of wood though Cactus. It's a book
It's a saying DB - not to be taken 100% literally, but when a book is closed, it essentially is a block of wood, much like a closed mind
Personally I would say you are a little closed minded, no offence.
believing everything that has a story attached to it or because it defies initial explanation is as bad as denying everything.
Agreed
It is probably best to be not too open nor closed minded; but just somewhere in the middle - find the balnce. |

Show me a bookshop that sells blocks of wood and I'll show you a bookshop that has gone out of business
It's best to be sceptical Cactus and evaluate all the available evidence before forming a conclusion.
How can I be closed minded if I'm open to believing in Ghosts and Aliens?.

| D B Sweeney, Show me the evidence of you being open to a belief in ghosts and aliens because you haven't been very open to it on here. |

I've quickly picked four stories at random. The fact that I've done it within minutes and not had to search would suggest that these are indicative of my open minded beliefs.
Obviously there is the possibility that you both did witness extraterrestrial craft but the actual evidence that such things exist is close to zero.
DB
Possibly but as yet inconclusively

You never know, maybe it is a ghost/poltergeist.  |
You could try a traditional Scottish breakfast for starters followed by a cardiac arrest
It may be a poltergeist but I think the truth lies with the living not the dead.

Hi Carlos,
Definitely spooky, sounds like a variation of the urban legend about the phantom hitch hiker. Unfortunately we've got no way of establishing any further details so spooky story it will remain.
DB
Please tell me where there is any suggestion that I'm rabidly closed minded in any of the about random selections?.

The younger crowd here too also enjoy vodka and red bull.
Years ago I would drink cherry vodka and 7-Up. |
