It basically says that you need meaning in your life, and that you must have a plan, or a path, for meaning. : "Too general to be inadequate"? There's gotta be some logic in that...I'm just not getting it. As far as I know, "inadequate" is a synonym to "insufficient", although those two words can't be used interchangeably. Sorry. I confused mere general truth for "adequacy." All I meant was that you couldn't deny that cliched truism: "You need meaning in your life." Maybe I believed it adequate, in a way, because I believe that everyone must make his or her own meaning. : : "Gooves" is the plural of "goof." You and that unbearably cute Cecil and Mr. Jerk (metalhead?) are being such. So there. : No, it's not. Although most nouns ending in in -f do undergo a change to having -ves as the plural ending (fortis f becomes a lenis v), not all words follow this pattern. Goof(s) is one, as are "dwarfs" and "roofs". It is now. I coined "gooves," and I'm proud of it. : : Seeya later! : : Derf : C-ya! : Ronnie Ditto.
