Love is a lot like Dream Theater, overly complex and a waste of time. Wink

Multi-faceted, and often pure and very, very powerful. Consider the love of a parent for a child. Smile
 
I speak from experience -- that form of love is beautiful, uplifting, immensely moving, life-affirming, etc, etc!
 
Stern Smile I would lay down my life for one of my children. Heart
 
Likely the poll targets the love of man & woman, boyfriend & girlfriend, etc, but as I've indicated, love does not need to have a sexual dimension. 
 
Deep friendship can be a manifestation of love too. One can even love one's pet.
 
"Because love's the final word -- nothing conquers love.
reason has to bow, if love demands it."
 
I believe we all want love, and we all need it (unless one is psychopathic).
 
Shocked Did you know that scientists have found that the child who is deprived of hugs (as a demonstration of parental love) will be stunted in growth? What does that tell you?

I think...when ' it's good love is great, when ' it's' bad it is bloody awful. But that does not make it less.......

Don't agree with the sentiment, but bloody funny post, nonetheless

Unless that's a reference to the scoring system (no pun intended), I assume that's a direct translation of a line from some obscure Kobaian love song; in which case, I think it lost something in the translation - I believe the true translation states "Love means nothing when your hovercraft is full of eels"

Thanks nature for those cliches then... How awful life would be if we would have to rationalize everything...

Love Is

the last Eric Burdon and the Animals album, which coincidentally contained a version of "To Love Somebody".
 
You don't know what it's like,
Baby you don't know what it's like.

Your CDs have been gently taken from our CD Baby shelves with
sterilized contamination-free gloves and placed onto a satin pillow.

A team of 50 employees inspected your CDs and polished them to make
sure they were in the best possible condition before mailing.

Our packing specialist from Japan lit a candle and a hush fell over
the crowd as he put your CDs into the finest gold-lined box that money
can buy.

We all had a wonderful celebration afterwards and the whole party
marched down the street to the post office where the entire town of
Portland waved "Bon Voyage!" to your package, on its way to you, in
our private CD Baby jet on this day, Sunday, April 6th.

I hope you had a wonderful time shopping at CD Baby.  We sure did.
Your picture is on our wall as "Customer of the Year."  We're all
exhausted but can't wait for you to come back to CDBABY.COM!!

Thank you, thank you, thank you!

Sigh...
