I just love the color purple. I own a lot of purple things.
At one time, purple was the color worn by Roman Magistrates.
Oh wow, I didn't know that. Purple can come in many different hues. I like deep purple, but I also like lavender colors.
Purple is much like violet, but it's a composite color made by combining red and blue
This is true. I love lilacs, the color purple that they are is just beautiful.
Often, when combined with pink, purple is associated with eroticism, femininity, and seduction.
That doesn't surprise me. Ping and purple are very seductive and sensual colors. I like them both honestly.
Yes, and pink is named after the flowers, pinks, and derives from the frilled edges of the flowers
Cool. In my opinion, purple and pink are both great colors and I will continue to purchase mostly purple attire when I shop.

What do you know about gun laws an policies in other countries? We're pretty open here so I am curious what other countries think.
In the USA gun laws are somewhat strict, Do you think we should all have full gun rights?
Oh I thought the gun laws in the USA were pretty open. I know that after several high-profile killing sprees in Australia the gun laws there got super restrictivve.
Oh wow that sounds crazy, I think that we should have rights to bear arms and just in general have better mental health help available to people so they wont go crazy.
If I remember correctly their killing-sprees weren't anywhere near as bad as the ones in the USA. in 2013 1.3% of deaths were firearm related in the US
Wow that's such a small percentage, I wonder what it is now and in the recent years. Do you think it rose in percentage?
I'm sure with the increased school shootings and the Las Vegas shooting those numbers have risen. Gun control debate has been a hot topic in the USA since the 1990's over the right to bear arms.
Yeah I hear a great deal of different opinions from Democrats and Republicans, But they all generally agree that we need to have better control of who we give guns too.

Dogs were the first species to be domesticated and have been bred for many different jobs throughout history.
I've heard a decent amount about that, didn't early humans see them eating from the carcasses of what we killed so we started to utilize them and domesticate them?

Unlike many other psychoactive substances, it is legal and unregulated in nearly all parts of the world. There are several known mechanisms of action to explain the effects of caffeine.

Yes. The Honda Insight is a hybrid electric vehicle that I really like!
They are good cars. The first Civic was introduced in 1972 as a two door model. Then the three door hatchback came out a couple months later.

Modern HEVs make use of efficiency-improving technologies such as regenerative brakes which convert the vehicle's kinetic energy to electric energy, which is stored in a battery or supercapacitor. Some varieties of HEV use an internal combustion engine to turn an electrical generator, which either recharges the vehicle's batteries or directly powers its electric drive motors; this combination is known as a motor–generator. Many HEVs reduce idle emissions by shutting down the engine at idle and restarting

Kayak
A kayak is a small, narrow watercraft which is typically propelled by means of a double-bladed paddle. The word kayak originates from the Greenlandic word "qajaq" ().
The traditional kayak has a covered deck and one or more cockpits, each seating one paddler. The cockpit is sometimes covered by a spray deck that prevents the entry of water from waves or spray, differentiating the craft from a canoe. The spray deck makes it possible for suitably skilled kayakers to roll the kayak: that is

I have two dogs. the cool thing about dogs is they are very protective of their environment and owners.
That's right! It seems no matter which breed and temperament, they all become "man's best friend." I have a pug myself.
I have a Rat Terrier and a rescued French Bulldog both are good watch dogs and both are female.
I've heard of a Rat Terrier! Is it good for keeping the house free of rodents, like a cat is?
Yes the rat terrier will even chase frogs off the porch. The rat terrier is very good for herding livestock in small numbers as well.

Rat Terrier
The Rat Terrier is an American dog breed with a background as a farm dog and hunting companion. Traditionally more of a type than a breed, they share much ancestry with the small hunting dogs known as feists. Common throughout family farms in the 1920s and 1930s, they are now recognized by the United and American Kennel Clubs and are considered a rare breed. Today's Rat Terrier is an intelligent and active small dog that is kept both for pest control and as a family pet.

Blue
Blue is one of the three primary colours of pigments in painting and traditional colour theory, as well as in the RGB colour model. It lies between violet and green on the spectrum of visible light. The eye perceives blue when observing light with a dominant wavelength between approximately 450 and 495 nanometres. Most blues contain a slight mixture of other colours; azure contains some green, while ultramarine contains some violet. The clear daytime sky and the deep sea appear blue because of an optical effect known as Rayleigh scattering.

Deserts are formed by weathering processes as large variations in temperature between day and night put strains on the rocks which consequently break in pieces. Although rain seldom occurs in deserts, there are occasional downpours that can result in flash floods. Rain falling on hot rocks can cause them to shatter and the resulting fragments and rubble strewn over the desert floor are further eroded by the wind. This picks up particles of sand and dust and wafts them

Pattern hair loss
Pattern hair loss is hair loss that primarily affects the top and front of the scalp. In male-pattern hair loss (MPHL), the hair loss often presents itself as a receding hairline, while in female-pattern hair loss (FPHL), it typically presents as a thinning of the hair.
Male pattern hair loss is believed to be due to a combination of genetics and the male hormone dihydrotestosterone. The cause in female pattern hair loss remains unclear.

Hello, do you like Scotch whisky, the malt whisky made in Scotland?
I really don't care for the taste but have friends and family that will drink nothing else.
I see, it tastes very nice. I am addicted to it and buy it from commercial distilleries
I have always heard scotch is an acquired taste.
Sort of, but the more you drink, the more you begin to like it especially if its aged for atleast three years.
Can you explain to me why its aged and why that is important?
Because a whisky with an age statement is known as guaranteed-age whisky. And everyone likes those!
So its aged to make it taste better?

All Scotch whisky must be aged in oak barrels for at least three years. Any age statement on a bottle of Scotch whisky, expressed in numerical form, must reflect the age of the youngest whisky used to produce that product.

A whisky without an age statement is known as a no age statement (NAS) whisky, the only guarantee being that all whisky contained in that bottle is at least three years

Butterflies are insects in the macrolepidopteran clade Rhopalocera from the order Lepidoptera, which also includes moths. Adult butterflies have large, often brightly coloured wings, and conspicuous, fluttering flight. The group comprises the large superfamily Papilionoidea, which contains at least one former group, the skippers (formerly the superfamily "Hesperioidea"), and the most recent analyses suggest it also contains the moth-butterflies (formerly the superfamily "Hedyloidea"). Butterfly fossils date to the Paleocene, which was about 56 million years ago.

Hello, How are you today? I love swimming, how about you?
Hi! I love swimming, too. It's a good form of exercise for me, since it's not as hard on my joints.
I think it is probably my favorite form of exercise, since it does not feel like exercise. It is so fun to me.
True true. Exercising in general isn't very fun. But swimming is so relaxing.
I could do swim for hours. I am lucky where we live we have to community pools, so it is easy to do.
Nice! Are they above ground or in-ground pools? I prefer in-ground.
They are both in-ground...I wish we had our own in-ground pool in our yard, but maybe someday.

I've been struggling with alcoholism but lately am recovering and it's going good.
That's great to hear! So you were drinking too much then? What physical and mental issues came with this?
Yeah I was drinking every day and it was hard for me not to. Of course I felt a lot of guilt and felt jittery all the time, nervousness too.
Did this get you into any risky situations, like drinking and driving?
No it never did but it made me start withdrawing from social contacts instead which was painful enough.
That's good that you stopped, since alcohol use can affect all parts of the body negatively.
Yes and honestly it makes you unable to think clearly too or focus on anything.

I only hope someday that I can give my son a tenth of what Dad has given us. And that I can rate any part of the admiration we've always felt for him. That's why it hurt so much to see him knocking himself in print. Taking himself apart and saying he punished us too much, that he was too strict with us, that he made us work too hard, that he spent too little time with us. That really shook me up."

I would like to learn surfing, it looks like so much fun!
It sounds easier said than done. It's a surface watersport. A surfer rides on a wave that carries the surfer towards the shore
Well at least you fall on water instead of asphalt or concrete like in skateboarding.
Definitely! They say the waves most suitable for surfing are primarily in the ocean.
It is amazing how some surfer sometimes ride these gigantic waves.

Surfing
Surfing is a surface water sport in which the wave rider, referred to as a surfer, rides on the forward or face of a moving wave, which usually carries the surfer towards the shore. Waves suitable for surfing are primarily found in the ocean, but can also be found in lakes or rivers in the form of a standing wave or tidal bore. However, surfers can also utilize artificial waves such as those from boat wakes and the waves created in artificial wave pools.
The term "surfing"

to increase the length of the ride of the wave, the surfer should travel parallel to the wave crest.

Surfing, like all water sports, carries the inherent risk of drowning. Anyone at any age can learn to surf, but should have at least intermediate swimming skills. Although the board assists a surfer in staying buoyant, it can become separated from the user. A leash, attached to the ankle or knee, can keep a board from

Sometimes used interchangeably with "guitar pop rock", in the mid-1980s, the term "indie" (or "indie pop") began to be used to describe the music produced on punk and post-punk labels. Some prominent indie rock record labels were founded during the 1980s. During the 1990s, grunge bands broke into the mainstream, and the

Hiya! Do you happen to have any dogs? For me I've got a Poodle.
I do have a dog! My neighbor has three toy poodles :)
Mine is a mini! Do you happen to know the differences in them?
I'm actually not sure, but I have heard that there are three types of poodles: the standard poodle, the miniature poodle, and the toy poodle.
I see! That's nice to know. Happen to know anything about how intelligent they are compared to other breeds?

Poodle
Poodles are a group of formal dog breeds, the Standard Poodle, Miniature Poodle and Toy Poodle. The origin of the breed is still discussed, with a prominent dispute over whether the poodle descends from Germany as a type of water dog, or from the French Barbet.
Ranked second most intelligent dog breed just behind the Border Collie, the poodle is skillful in many dog sports and activities, including agility, obedience, tracking to herding, circus performers and assistance dogs. Poodles have taken top honors in many
