What is the knowledgeable bump thread? Instead of just bumping or such to earn gold, why not share quotes, wisdom and the like -while earning Gaia gold as a side reward. biggrin You might have a recipe, or maybe a way to fix something quickly. You might have a funny story about your cat XD
Share away!
-----------------------------------
I like to randomly open one of my quote or wisdom books and see what the one for the day is.. biggrin
Today's quote is:
"You can't hold a man down without staying down with him." -Booker Taliaferro Washington

I have great admiration for the wisdom of Marshall McLuhan Watch this if you have time. He talked alot about the coming of the electric age and our weakening of society due to the increase of technology. It's a short video about Edgar Allen Poe's "A Descent into the Maelström" http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=p_aIdD6oAew&feature=channel_page

Knowledge
Bukhari :: Book 1 :: Volume 3 :: Hadith 98
Narrated Abu Huraira:
I said: "O Allah's Apostle! Who will be the luckiest person, who will gain your intercession on the Day of Resurrection?" Allah's Apostle said: O Abu Huraira! "I have thought that none will ask me about it before you as I know your longing for the (learning of) Hadiths. The luckiest person who will have my intercession on the Day of Resurrection will be the one who said sincerely from the bottom of his heart "None has the right to be worshipped but Allah."
And 'Umar bin 'Abdul 'Aziz wrote to Abu Bakr bin Hazm, "Look for the knowledge of Hadith and get it written, as I am afraid that religious knowledge will vanish and the religious learned men will pass away (die). Do not accept anything save the Hadiths of the Prophet. Circulate knowledge and teach the ignorant, for knowledge does not vanish except when it is kept secretly (to oneself)."

This is cool! biggrin
A circle is 360 degrees.
A horizanal line is 180 degrees.
A perpendicular line (and perfect corner) is 90 degrees.
That's all I can think of at the moment. sweatdrop

Lessee:
The day in its hotness,
The strife with the palm;
The night in her silence,
The stars in their calm.
