Too bad the count didn't succeed.

All Nazi bastards should burn in hell.

Education has nothing to do with the ability to think. I know many PhD's who know a whole lot but have trouble actually applying it to everyday situations.

Members of the RKBA have varying degrees of education but are extremely proficient in application.

Who cares about your advanced degrees?

Not employers, apparently.

One of my favorite foreign language songs:

Rammstein - Sonne

Eins, zwei, drei, vier, funf, sechs, sieben, acht, neun, aus

Alle warten auf das Licht
furchtet euch furchtet euch nicht
die Sonne scheint mir aus den Augen
sie wird heut Nacht nicht untergehen
und die Welt zahlt laut bis zehn

Eins
Hier kommt die Sonne
Zwei
Hier kommt die Sonne
Drei
Sie ist der hellste Stern von allen
Vier
Hier kommt die Sonne

Die Sonne scheint mir aus den Handen
kann verbrennen, kann euch blenden
wenn sie aus den Fausten bricht
legt sich heiss auf das Gesicht
sie wird heut Nacht nicht untergehen
und die Welt zahlt laut bis zehn

Eins
Hier kommt die Sonne
Zwei
Hier kommt die Sonne
Drei
Sie ist der hellste Stern von allen
Vier
Hier kommt die Sonne
Funf
Hier kommt die Sonne
Sechs
Hier kommt die Sonne
Sieben
Sie ist der hellste Stern von allen
Acht, neun
Hier kommt die Sonne

Die Sonne scheint mir aus den Handen
kann verbrennen, kann dich blenden
wenn sie aus den Fausten bricht
legt sich heiss auf dein Gesicht
legt sich schmerzend auf die Brust
das Gleichgewicht wird zum Verlust
lasst dich hart zu Boden gehen
und die Welt zahlt laut bis zehn

Eins
Hier kommt die Sonne
Zwei
Hier kommt die Sonne
Drei
Sie ist der hellste Stern von allen
Vier
Und wird nie vom Himmel fallen
Funf
Hier kommt die Sonne
Sechs
Hier kommt die Sonne
Sieben
Sie ist der hellste Stern von allen
Acht , neun
Hier kommt die Sonne

Exactly!

I just read a story in the NYT magazine about adults with A.D.D. and their inability to focus on specific tasks.

One of the people profiled had two master's degrees!

Funniest thing I've read all week.

Maybe we had a celebrity troll then ;-) BTW, one of Hitler's self conscious fixations was his brown hair and brown eyes. He's also a quarter Jewish. No wonder why Hitler is the most studied infamous personality ever.

I only have 2 Associate Degrees, (long story), but I have a ton of common sense. I was always the first to catch on to a new idea and the one who helped others understand it. I was a A student through high school and maintained a 3.8 through an Associate in Engineering and a second in Business while working full-time.

Several times I have started to go back and get my BS but never was willing to give up what free time I have. I have a good life and I like it.

The article says the conspirators were shot, but I thought they were hanged on piano wires and their excruciating deaths filmed for Hitler's viewing pleasure.

It sure sounds like it.

Believe me, if I had been born into wealth, I might have thought about attending graduate school and giving those leftists twits the ol' one-two.

There are even people-mostly lawyers-who've suggested that I go to law school.

Now there's a shocker!

Erwin Rommel-and other distinguished career officers, perhaps-were given that option.

Believe me, if Hitler had hanged the "Desert Fox" he would have had a lot more trouble on his hands than a single conspiracy/murder plot.

Im my former Product Management job with a Large Telecommunications Concern I frequently dealt with our internal, external, and vendor legal staffs. I was frequently told the same thing. To which I replied, "I'm just smart law is dull like accounting with an audience."

If they said, "What do you like?" I said, "I'm sticking with show business."

Rommel was not shot, he took poison to save his family. I'm talking about others.

Good answer!

I would do show biz, but I never liked waiting tables.

Yes, I stand corrected.

My point was that he was giving a bit of a break-relatively speaking-that was denied to the less senior officers, because of his rank and popularity among the German public.

I don't really know how the others were killed exactly, though I'm sure that their fate was just as unpleasant.

I'm sorry, I lost my train of thought... what'd you just say?
