[Catty1]

Yes, in the U.S.A. I'm in Canada...and some info comes here after other stuff does.

We outgrew the dogsled for tranferring news along time ago.

I do have afew stories about pilots betting on the taped NFL games before we had live coverage up here.

Now THAT would be interesting! Wonder if anyone got on the ham radio to a southern neighbour and "cheated".

All I meant was that on the Canadian email scene, things about our own Prime Minister and our election seem to delay other bits about Palin et al.

My mom, however, not only thinks Palin is stupid - but thinks McCain is even stupider, as in, "What on earth was he thinking?"

She is well-informed about many things...she's a retired teacher, with a Master's degree and two undergrad degrees. She watches enough TV to keep up with some things.

I hadn't seen the flow chart before - I loved it!

Yeah the flow chart brought the funny.

I dont think there where enough HAMS up here at the time when NFL game where taped up here, the pilots made a killing placing bets. They bet on any game too not just NFL.

Most intilectuals see us common folk as stupid. Im dyselxic I have a right to misspell, dang it! I think?

There's nothing wrong with being "common". There's also nothing wrong with being an "intellectual" either.

Dyslexia doesn't have to mean you misspell things either, it's learning disability which has many facets.

Ild say that is true maybe 50% of the time.

As a dyslexic, thanks for pointing out the obvious.

[sparks19]

Well... I just have to input my two cents about my hubby lol. It's off topic but I love him and can't help it.

he's like Beer... he's an acquired taste but once you acquire that taste ... MAN is he a lot of fun lol.

Seriously though. He comes across as a pain in the butt in most of his posts... sometimes he is a pain in the butt. But... he is a good man. He's a loving husband and a wonderful father.

sorry... I know most of you don't care but it's hard for me to just stand by and see him be completely misunderstood. I'm his wife and I love him... can't fault me for that he comes across as a hard a$$ sometimes and his communication skills with other may leave much to be desired... but he has a good heart

Back to your regularly scheduled programming

It's not always obvious to everyone. Some people think it's only switching around letters and being a poor speller.

About going to church and sunday school... doesn't really mean much of anything, sorry. Why is it that the people who always say they are such good Christians, are the one's who actually behave the most Un-Christian.

Like the one person posted earlier...
"Going to church doesn't make you a christian any more than standing in a garage makes you a car."


As for your post highschool education... it's what you want to do with it that determines what you actually get out of your degree. So, if all you got out of it was Trivial Pursuit answers, I'm sorry. I've gotten more out of my degree than that, thankfully, but it's because I chose to.

Catty... I am sure your Mom is a wonderful person. But education and wisdom are vastly different things. Education does not make one WISE.

Further... Have you WATCHED Candian TV lately? I have. Ever notice how many commercials are sponsored "By the Government of Canada"?

Canadians are proud, and rightly so. Still.... You make fun of us when we thump OUR chests about OUR country. Odd... eh?

Hows that tax rate going for ya? LOL Be happy... Once Barry gets elected with a lib Congress, we will be there soon too. Bitching about our Government, yet unwilling/unable to do crap about it.

*** I spend a LOT of time in Canada. Never have I heard such whining about government, yet a complete lack of willingness to do anything about it. Strange, for such a proud people.

If there is one thing Candace isn't doing, it's making fun of us, or the US. She posted a joke, that's all.

You,and your buddy, blue, are being antagonistic. Actually, that's mostly what I've been seeing from the two of you. You're behaving like typical school bullies.

Education doesn't necessarily make one wise, but at least they have a foundation. Education opens doors of the mind to further learning and the ideas of others.

[smokey the elder]

Education doesn't necessarily make one wise, but hopefully teaches something about critical thinking, so that one can become wise if they so choose. (Did that sound pompous, or what!)

[elizabethann]

I love that graphic! Can't wait to forward it to my BIL!

Of COURSE you think Blue and I are being antagonistic. Thats how this BB rolls. Regularly, style is attacked and the substance is ignored. That's fine though. It says enough. Also, FWIW, I am not TRYING to be antagonistic. My apologies if you SEE it that way. I try to ignore the snide remarks you all deliver and just go for the substance.

I have 5 years of post highschool education. You know what it has done for me? Made me a kickass Trivial Pursuit player. (History degree)

You know what made me WISE? Sunday School and 3 combat deployments. Now couple that with the History degree... I see how we are simply repeating past mistakes. Humans are so dumb. LOL

[Catty1]

So why wasn't RICHARD receiving similar comments from you two when he posted "Sarah Palin is a DOLL?"

Maybe your combat roles have added a natural attack response in addition to your post-secondary education. (I have only a BA myself).

So - maybe I will give myself and my eyes some peace and quiet and put you both on Ignore. How many is that for you now, Puck? 3 or more including me.

We're all out of step except you.

And yes, you DO come across as antagonistic, even if you don't mean to. Might want to look into info or workshops on communication styles, and communicating. That's not taught in any university that I know of.

Cheers.
