It\\\'s all ME my friend. Although, I LOVE Talking Heads, which had Jerry Harrison as a member, who I think played on a Televeision album. So... there you go.

So if Geo and Soccergirl are the same person does that mean that Geo really does have brains, body, both for EVERYONE!
Wow. He is everything to everyone.
The atheist / agnostic argument bugs me.
With gnostic meaning (among other things) \\\\\\\"possessing knowledge, esp. esoteric knowledge of spiritual matters\\\\\\\" and theism meaning roughly \\\\\\\"Belief in the existence of a god or gods\\\\\\\" according to dictionary.com...
The old standby is that agnostic is about doubt, and that atheist is about certainty, but that\\\\\\\'s bogus in my books. An atheist IS agnostic, but an agnostic might not be an atheist.
As an atheist, I admit that I have no knowledge of the supernatural. I do not believe in a god, and especially not a personal god that watches me while I mastu... sleep... while I SLEEP. I have no knowledge of the spirit realm, likely due to its non-existence, and while that makes me agnostic, it\\\\\\\'s not the right word.
Agnostics can still quest for god; they can still care to find a personal god; they can STRIVE to find god, and remain agnostic. That\\\\\\\'s where atheists differ; we\\\\\\\'ve chosen to stop looking due to lack of evidence and due to a lack logical arguments for god.
Don\\\\\\\'t even mention Pascal; that wager\\\\\\\'s so bogus.
SHIT. I figured it out. It\\\'s not that you\\\'re stalking Soccergirl or anything... it\\\'s that you and Soccergirl ARE THE SAME PERSON.
It makes perfect sense.
I like the way Rebecca Watson said it best: \\\"philosophical agnostic, practical atheist.\\\" Given that that 1% doubt will never be realized as anything concrete, least of all as the god you don\\\'t believe in, there is no difference in daily life between 99% and 100%.
Great to hear that you and Soccer Girl are mutually stalking each other. I\'ve been following (not stalking) you since I first heard you on Skepticality, and listening to Soccer Girl Inc. since you mentioned her podcast.
Great fun.
