Two sides of the same coin. A head can be defined as the absence of a tail. Yet it is the opposite of the tail.

A head is not an opposite of a tail. So while two sides of the same coin might be accurate, opposites isn't.

oooooooooooooooooo k :roll: They sure as hell aren't the same sides so they must be opposite sides.
How about we flip a coin, you can take heads and I'll take the opposite.

You been into darkbeaver's crop?

You're right (not about smoking though). I was thinking in terms of exact opposites. Clearly one side of a coin is on the opposite site of the other. But a head and a tail are not necessarily opposites of each other, except when used within the specific symbolic context of sides of a coin.

But I admit I wasn't thinking too clearly in my last post. Not much sleep last night.

From "The Tyger" by William Blake:

"When the stars threw down their spears
And water'd heaven with their tears,
Did he smile his work to see?
Did he who made the Lamb make thee?"

Oh my, is pot really that powerful? Well, I guess I should be too surprised; alcohol can do a job on the mind too.

Whatever it is that you like, use it in moderation. :) One could say that about religion, too, I suppose. lol
