[QUOTE="ledded, post: 1200760, member: 12744"] And to be honest, I too generally hang around with people who are as smart or smarter than me, because it at least give me some kind of bar for my self to rise to, or else I would sink down into watching reality TV while drooling and drinking Milwaukee's best in my stained underwear, scratching and chuckling stupidly to myself, but only when the commercials were on. Wound? Ah, I meant not to wound, only to rebutt. And apathy is one thing all of us are guilty of in at least some aspects. I have a couple friends who think I am a complete idiot because I dont do my own taxes; I only skim the business section of most news to keep generally abreast of whats going on; playing the stock market should come easy to me, but it bores me so much that I pretty much let someone else do it for me, and he has to keep it simple enough in my Roth IRA's so I can understand it without having to have it explained to me lest I lapse into a state of semi-consciousness and wander off drooling in search of cola and doughnuts. So if it makes you feel any better, in certain points of view, what I said to ya could be interrpreted thusly: <ring ring> Hello, Pot? This is kettle. You're black. ;^) (oh, and please remove at least a few of those curses from my head, as the large amount already placed there by ex-girlfriends, student loan officers, conversation boors with poor senses of timing, and family members who I refuse to loan money to have accumulated enough there already to make me look like some kind of 1930's Himalayan Sherpa.)
