I don't know why I choose to publically ridicule myself..but, I am THAT stupid. I mean, I am formally educated, I have a doctorate, but, I truly am that stupid when it comes to history, world events, probably the things that matter most. I am just not interested. I know all the states in the country, but can't tell you any capitals. I don't know who is on the money my country issues, can't really tell you much about WWI or II, don't know capitals of other countries...Name me the top ten, shoot, top 100 international figures, and I would know maybe 3-4 of them, and their significance.
I just don't really care to know that stuff. I can tell you alot about law, medicine, animals, human traits, logic, some science, computers, I am mechanically inclined, can do most home improvment projects myself, but, I can't answer those types of questions. That isn't where my strength or natural curiosity lies. And, really, alot of it is rote memorization. Someone I know very, very well can name nearly every person of international significance, and knows so much about American history...but, look at him with tears running down your face, and he can't even figure out you are upset!!
