Of course in the old days when there was only one phone per dorm floor guys would call a girls' dorm and ask for Anita Dick the the girl answering the phone would shout out "Anita Dick".

I remember that like it was yesterday. You had to call a Freshman girl's dorm for it to work. After a while, all the girls knew what was happening.

Of course. But to make it more plausible there was a Dick family in Ruston at the time. Seems like the father ran the chemical store room/supply room in Carson-Tayor.

Did you know an ostrich's eye is bigger than its brain?

Sharks are immune to all diseases (so far).

Sheep/goats outnumber human beings in New Zealand almost 20 to 1 ( approx. 70 million to 4 million )

A Swordfish can swim up to 68 mph.

They better not get too close to Africa. It seems that most of the really bad diseases came from there.

Not anymore.

Thanks for the update!

GO Dawgs!!!!

All because of the lack of choice (in political candidates) AND lack of knowledge of our history (unrevised), and the effect of the former on the latter when mixed with the wonderful privilege of the vote.

The popular vote meant nothing in the last Presidential election.

OLDBLUE...you must be in stealth mode....I don't see you listed as a member at the bottom of the Forum page.

Best way out of this situation.........vote for someone who is a businessman...NOT a lawyer!!

[Houston Techsan]

I think I take umbrage with that. I am a lawyer and a businessman. I have run my own practice for amost 30 years. The trouble with most politicians who are lawyers is that they have never had to run their own practice and most of them have never worked in the private sector.

[OLDBLUE]

It is in the character, not just "occupation." Even a successful lawyer/businessman can be less than compassionate about preserving our liberty. But, your point is obviously very valid. Keys words in this theme are "politician" and "character" methinks.

Main thing is: Go DAWGS, or PC - progress dahgs! (or is that canivores?)

Very few "businessmen" understand how the public sector works, at least not in their first term.

Many of them get "termed-out" just as they figure out what the hecks going on.

That is the problem.
