"So What"...
What if the boy you used to like hadn't been interested in men? Would it have worked out? Would anything have happened at all?
Actually, how this post was inspired was kind of comical.
Logged in to myspace to be greeted by a new message from an old friend. A friend who I always thought would someday grow up to be interested in men. Not to exude feelings of stereotypicalities (I know, not a word. Oh well). I remember liking him. You know adolescent infatuations. Then I wondered "what if". What if he hadn't been gay. Would my life be different? Simple. Yeah. To what extent?
... I turned on my iTunes, shuffle of course. "So What"-Miles Davis came on. Coincidental? I think that is the answer. The answer to these so-called "what-ifs" is a "so what".
There's also other sorts of what-ifs that go on and on towards tangents. It's disgustingly enough a lot like calculus... What ifs are the functions and answers or estimated answers are the so-called limits that it approaches. Yeah, I think I've mentioned this to someone before... I hate how it keeps coming up. It just really does. It makes sense.

Everyone plays the "what if" game.
"What if you and i never met..."
"What if i stayed with that one bitch..."
"what if i got into the car crash where the one hoe didn't signal..."
"what if..."
The what if game does serve a purpose, i think.
It serves the purpose to Teach the lesson of appreciation.
what if this happened? well, just be grateful it didn't
What if this didn't happen? well, just be grateful it did.
Of coarse, these two scenarios spawn to many more lessons but these are the mothers - or roots - of the lessons.
The "what if" game is great, but it can be easy to be caught up in it - very easy. Ask too many what ifs and you'll never know anything because you'll be too busy asking what if. hahaha
p.s. I'm glad the cd i gave you came to some kind of use. :]
haha, i know exactly what you mean. you'll probably have tons of fun w/ "sequential games" later on in econ - they're big what-if models. sometimes, i even play them with my life. i think it's pretty funny, and livens up a friday evening...
... yeah, i know i have lame friday evenings. >__>
