I wonder if my car will "pass" Air Care today (since I moved back to the city, I'd forgotten we had to pay for this service... AND if the car fails, you can't purchase insurance and therefore can't drive until the car is fixed!) (Newer cars don't have to go thru this testing because they are designed to be cleaner...!)
I wonder why its ALWAYS the guy with little money who seems to pay out the most... after all, if I were rich, I'd simply buy a new car!
I wonder at how much I have learned from participating in this forum ... and how much I appreciate newer friendships (wren, melody, waves, Tom et al) and opportunity to grow! And those friends like Wish, Curious, mistiss, Niki... so many more ... BMW, Dottie... Doodysis... who always check in with us... ok... must stop naming names cuz I ALWAYS forget my people's names... but YOU know who you are! 
I wonder if Alffe is finished her papering!
I wonder about Lara and the Mois and Reyn and scrabble and well, so many of us ... and whenever I hear from them, I feel our family is ok.... so, thanks, Alffe, for passing on your news about Lara!
I wonder how Goofy is holding up these days (isn't it amazing and then shocking how many times we think to pick up the phone to call our moms...  )
I wonder if Ducky knows I really am amazed at her strength (altho she might not think its so!) as she continues her battle against tobacco addiction...
I wonder about David's son... and whether or not he's reached back to his family...
I wonder at how a beautiful little girl, my grandaughter, has brought together my sons...
I wonder at how she has become my purpose for being...

Hello, Addy:
I wonder if two, apparently unrelated things are related:
First, a thought of Petr: "A suicidal thought is NOT initiated by the mind as a way to harm the person.
It is initiated by the mind as a misguided attempt to protect the person. By understanding its intent you will be able to redirect it with self esteem and self love in place...fear will not be able to stimulate the negative cascading psysiological affects that make so many of us tire to the point of accepting suicide as the solution." Something that is originally meant to be helpful, then, becomes misdirected.
And second, apparently one cause of neurological diseases is that antibodies, which the body produced to fight diseases ("good"), somehow become misdirected and attack neuro fibers ("bad").
In such cases, could a suicidal thought sometimes be the representation in consciousness of what is happening on the physical level? If that is so, then it would seem that solving the antibody problem would redirect the suicidal tendency as well.
I wonder...
Tom
