You rallied behind someone who never had their heart in the race and was never a leader in their life (Thompson) or never had a chance in hell (Hunter). What is needed more than anything to win the WH is a drive to do the spade work necessary to get there. So by denying Romney victory in IA and NH and SC, and splitting the field, you now have probably the worst enemy of all - someone the Wonderful Mr. Jim Robinson never saw fit to put a 'truth file' on.
So, nice work.
You should shave a Ancel also you need flea powder..
I was teasing you and honestly I don’t know what the post was about. I’m behind as it is, don’t make me read back more. It’s not fair ;) I read the post and commented when I probably shouldn’t have.
We’re all sinners. Some more than others. But we’re not supposed to judge either way. I was just teasing and posting and I have no room to judge anyone. I’m sure some would consider me a heathen.
It’s all your fault. You’re a man and you made me feel comfortable to post ;) You’re getting this right?
I can't think of a single major engineering school in NJ.
One option is to have your daughter take up official residence in a state with low in-state tuition for a good engineering school. My alma mater - Ohio State - is about $8000 for in-state and has a top 20 rated Undergraduate Engineering College. Ohio State's Graduate Engineering is a top ten program. Penn State is highly rated, is closer to you and probably has good in-state tuition. Each state has its own rules for in-state residency. Ohio is one year, last I checked.
Your daughter could claim Mexican illegal immigrant status (change her name to Twinkita Twinkosa) and get free tuition in Arkansas, I believe. I hear the Republican politicians down there are very generous with money that's not theirs.
I wouldn't be surprised at all if you hide your intelligence for fear of intimidating less intelligent men or insecure Alphas. I'm the opposite; I prefer the company of and conversation with intelligent women.
You crack me up, lol. seriously, I don’t want anything for free or anything from the govt but I am tired of paying for all these freakin programs when my kid won’t benefit from any of them.
Are you thinking of Rowan? I’ve heard and researched that it’s a good engineering school. We’re pushing Rutgers cos it’s a state school. Neither are high up on the engineering school list but Rowam is climbing.
Penn State is an awesome eningeering school plus everything else about it rocks (yes I’m prejudiced). Oh you’re an ohio state person, sigh, lol. teasing. Good school and great football team :).
Iused to own my Mom’s home in philly but sold it when she died. My oldest brother lives in philly. I wish we could establish residency for her but I have no clue as of now how to do it. Penn State in state tuition is doable, out of state isn’t. Her Dad got a full ride to Penn State (EE major) but I don’t think those are happening now. I got almost a full ride freshman year and yes I screwed it up, partier that I was, but ended up with half of it paid and grants/work study helped and my college debt was minimal.
LOL! You ARE bad! She’s a blue eyed blonde. Ain’t happening. The other three, they have my italian ancestry, it could pass for mexican. Hell at least the other two. The other one, nah, green eyes.
I never hide my schooling. One of my high school/post high school bf’s used to freak and tell me to speak english and I ‘d say read a dictionary, lol. I don’t hide anything esp what I know.
I’m seriously stupid, don’t know if stupid is the right word, in tons of things. And incredibly smart/knowledgeable, not sure if those are the right terms, in other things. The computer is a mystery to me, try as I might to learn it. Maybe I’m lazy. Any appliance hates me. The car hates me. And they do hate me. Hey you must know what PEBKAC means? Tell me you do, lol. I am PEBKAC. And part of it, is because I just want the damn thing fixed. I really don’t understand the computer and its workings. But get me started on us history, world history, economics, islam, european history, and anyting english (grammar, lit), I’m all there :)
“No matter who is named VP, McCain is not right in the head.”
‘...I don’t care who ya are....dat there wuz funny’ :)
Engineering is a job to me not an obsession. Computers are tools not something I enjoy tinkering with. I enjoy designimg electronics because I like knowing my products are in all, but a handful of third world countries and my designs save lives. 90% of my work is drudgery, but the other 10% makes it worth it. I respect your choice to be a mom. There is no greater calling for a woman in my opinion. This is one of those things my wife disagrees strongly with me on. She revealed to me, after we married, that she had voluntarily undergone sterilization because she didn't want to interrupt her career with kids.
Excellent Post!
Problem Exists Between Keyboard And Chair usually means you are using a Windows machine with lots of viruses, spyware, malware, adware, and BillGatesware infestations. Get a Mac and your PEBKAC will be cured.
“Can you tell Im tech/computer illiterate?”
Yes. Welcome to FR.
‘...Islam (especially),’
Now that can come in quite handy!
...and McCain is for you. You deserve him so enjoy.
Well, that is just it. Romney wasn't a Conservative candidate to rally around the first or second time - because he wasn't a Conservative on issues like abortion, gun control, "gay" rights, and judges.
Then, he spun like top trying to tell us all he was endorsed by the NRA (not true), was now pro-life (un huh), and didn't really mean to appoint lesbian activists to the bench (DIGNITY USA).
We didn't believe him - and the MittBots went off on us for not swallowing the NyQuil.
If you all want to play this game - we can say you didn't get behind Hunter, Thompson, or Tancredo early and it is all your fault.
But what is the point now?
I think he already bent a few last night.
lol!
Thank you for proving my point!
Both you and 50mm have thoroughly entertained me with your jokes and posts :) nice when I was in such a lousy mood to begin with, so thankyou two!
Twink, how about sending your daughter during the summer to live with your brother, (for awhile?) and having her apply to PENN while she is there? She needs the address and your family deserves the break.(tuition-wise). Good luck.
Kudos to you!
You were one of the best warriors in the fight against the Romney Sleaze Machine.
Good work!
Him leaving the race has made it all worth it!
