Yeah, and we gotta whole lotta crap to deal with as well!:p

That is "Ebonics" for "I am an NFL lineman, I graduated with a 5.3GPA in face smashing".

I prefer a mix of all of them. I think it would be hard to function without a good mix of things. Too much of one and none of the other and you end up with a genius who cannot function. Like Mr. Norlan.

Which is EXACTLY why I jumped! :p Intelligence comes in many forms. IQ is only one of the ways people try to quantify what cannot be measured in any meaningful way. What I find amazing is that this thread has not yet died.

If I were able to make expo I would, without a doubt, take part in that ceremony. Thank you for the offer PreacherRich.

LOL!! WHAT $1.60 loads? I don't even fire up the engine for loads that pay THAT bad! Most van loads I see pay much less that $1 per. 5000$ for a brake job? Besides, a high IQ has NEVER stopped ANYONE from being stupid! This is funny! Guess OVM was wrong!

Looks like things are slow again.

Amazing. Someone posts about an idea that many believe in and hurts no one. No one is forced to participate in this event. Then people ridicule the man's beliefs. Be ashamed.

You got that right! Some day, when we meet up again, I will tell you the story about Mr. Norlan, owner of the Norlan Switch Company. A genius, incapable of talking to anyone or even walking without assistance. The ONLY he could speak was when he was in view of one of his products. He could...

No OVM, you are FAR from normal!

Please explain, I don't understand you idea. At normal earth space craft speeds it would take, say the shuttle, 37,000 years to travel one light year. The nearest star to earth, other than the sun, is Proxima Centauri, with is about 4.2 light years from earth. It is a red dwarf and it is...

In PA, most state and local government jobs REQUIRE union membership. If you don't join they will take out dues, whether you want them to or not. This WILL become an issue in the campaign this fall. The unions are going to dump millions of that forced money into Obama reelection campaign. All...

Get government out of the way and we WILL head for the stars. They are a LONG way off. Without something like warp it is impossible without multigenerational ships.

OK, what ever you like.

You cannot work at any of the "Big 3" without joining a union. You cannot work at any state job in PA, and several other states, without joining a union. Cannot work at several of the major steel mills without joining. You don't HAVE to work at those places, BUT, you are not free to work there...

Finished it. :D Just ate lunch.

"Van" WAS real. I was on the fire department with him for 10 years. He volunteered at Glen Rock Hose and Ladder for more than 50 years. Right up until he died at 80. A REAL man!

Unions often complain about the money that "big business" or "special interest" groups throw at campaigns. It would seem that they are doing the same. This is bad stuff. In many cases people are forced to belong to a union if they want to work in certain states or jobs. They have no choice but...

If enough would like this I say go for it. Those who don't believe or choose not to participate, that is fine too.
