It is tangible, just, that it could be refering to studies by this Japanese dude who found that containers of water that had had buddhist prayers of joy and happiness read at them showed pretty and symetrical patterns (formed by the minerals contained within or something) when seen under a microscope. Containers of water that had been talked angrilly to (honest) showed ugly and random patterns when seen under a microscope.
So perhaps as we are something like 90% water, whatever vibes we put out or recieve is conducted by the water or something...
Ha, well it�s negligible that this is what the source of your qoute meant, but it is a possible interpretation.... |

"...as all get out."
WTF is that supposed to mean?
"As right as rain."
Even when it's flooding? Then I say rain is wrong, WRONG! |

What's so goddamn fun about barreled monkeys? No good for target practice even. |
