Just picking at you Alan, NOTHING meant by it!

I'm guilty of bumping NOTHING!

George

Good grief ... how does one read 125 pages of NOTHING? Simple, there's NOTHING to it!

The beauty of nothing is that if you don't read it then you've read nothing. So you've both read and not read it simultaneously. What else can you say that of.

Alan: Are you saying Tautological is actually NOTHING in another form ??

"Tautology" comes from the Greek "taut" meaning "the same". When two arguments or statements say the same thing in different words they are "tautological". So "tautological" can only refer to something else, after all, it's an adjective, whereas "nothing" is a noun. "Nothing" is tautological with "nullity", but it's not tautological with "tautological."

I was thinking it might have a similar meaning to TANTAMOUNT but maybe NOT or should I say NOT--HING ?

"Nullity"?

there was an on the spot reporter asking people on the street about a particular event , he come across one fellow , and ask “ sir ! do you have comments or opinions ? the fellow said -- “Why YES ! I do !!!! people come up to your mic and start talking and talking and they have nothing to say .

Cast your mind back to High School French. Tant amonter. "Amounts to such".

b0b wrote:"Nullity"?

Nullity = Nothingness

Come to think of it, what's the difference between NOTHING and NOTHINGNESS ?

NOTHING JUST NOTHING.

I had a thought but NOTHING comes to mind ! Could it be a NULLITY ??

Maybe it's a Nuffinkity.

I like the current views count for this thread...181818 !

And in case you might think I haven't been counting, the total views for my three favorite giant threads is now 664,406 views ! Might be a record of some sort or perhaps just another NOTHING !!

Have you counted how many of the 181818 posts are from each person? I get the impression that there are about five of us who represent almost all of those posts, with just a smattering of other people, who wonder what the hell we're spending all this time on NOTHING for.

Alan,
Think NOTHING OF IT.

Alan: There are only 3120 replies ( or Posts...) and views are not documented so there is no way to explore your question. But it's NOTHING really...isn't it ?

Speaking of NOTHING...tomorrow in Forsyth, GA, there is a festival for the first train in Georgia 175 years ago. It ran from there to my hometown of Macon, GA. It has been rumored that they will have a gigantic model train display...Why I can't say ! See you there ???

I would if I could, but being without the wherewithal I can't,
So I shall get to see nothing.

Nothing ventured, nothing gained, so here are The Ventures, playing about Money for Nothing.

So there must be some purpose behind nothing, after all.

So many people here with something to say...2,286,613 articles in all !! Isn't there someone who has NOTHING to say besides me ???

Nothing, Nope, Nada, No...

Paul I think you said NOTHING so you have left us saying NOTHING.
So all in all there is NOTHING,
Unless Alan has something to say.

I sometimes go back and look this over...Today I found one I had missed or overlooked, a Chinaman named NOT HING !!

Alan knows him...

Nothing.... What useable files were left remaining on my system hard drive after a very nasty piece of malware got by Norton.
