What I learned from the DNC speeches last night...

Got a mouse in your pocket and are you willing to post your college transcripts so we can all marvel at your "intelligence"?

Mouse? I dont get it.

 

[IndyDave1776]

Mouse? I dont get it.

The mouse reference is generally used when someone speaks in the plural to someone else disavowing inclusion. The idea is that in order for you to be 'we', there must be a mouse in your pocket who is the other half of 'we'.

If you haven't been to college, you don't have a brain.

 

[Blackhawk2001]

And how intelligent do you feel having to have BOTH of my phrases explained to you?

Who is you?

 

[NYFelon]

Of course not. Intelligence isn't innate, it is only earned with a paper slip.

Gotcha. Thanks bro. I have never heard that before in my life.

Nobody is more fond of a license to practice medicine, build things, etc. than the person that holds the license. That license is a barrier to entry and inhibits competition. Is it any surprise that college graduates want to do the same thing?

You know, I just found out today, that a guy here at work with a MBA, and 400+ a month in student loan payments, at age 48, makes less than I do, with no college at all, and no debt, at age 31.

If I was him, I would feel like college totally screwed me upwards and downwards.

Then I found out his wife ALSO hadnt paid her college tuition off either.... and quit her job to raise a kid.

jeepers.

I never paid the first cent to a university and my base is $44,000 a year. I made just under $75k last year. Rumor is we're getting a $3 an hour raise. I'll believe it when I see it in my check though.

I think to some degree that happens already, except they use automatic weapons, sometimes involves shooting from a moving car and usually happens in places like Chicago, New York and other "gun free zones".

Nah....

That is more like a Fued than a Duel...

Saw what you will about a college education, but it has the potential of enriching one's life in ways beyond explanation.

Money may be important, but it can't grant happiness. There are examples of such throughout the entertainment world.

 

[Ted]

You have the problem with overuse of antibiotics creating antibiotic resistant bacteria. So once again the irresponsible use of drugs really can and will affect all of us.

Such is a problem with the French culture. So much so, I'm shocked that the Eiffel Tower hasn't contracted MRSA.

Going back to the topic ( )
I learned this morning that Joe Scarboro is a kindred spirit of Matthews now. He was going on and on about how great every Democrat speaker was and what boring dolts all of the Republican speakers were.

Wow. Are you a masochist or does someone pay you to watch those bozos?

One can be well read and educated without ever attending a College or Universtity...

I have yet to have enough money to put this statement to the test. I however, with some certainty say that being poor does not allow for much happiness either...

I just think its funny he is talking about the benefits of higher education and started out with an incorrectly spelled word.

Saw a clip of him on Fox & Friends. They were showing the reaction from other networks.

Let he who is without misspellings cast the first stone.

Truth.
