Well, who cares? The America of the future does not need engineers anyway. All it needs is Democrat voters.
Well, this is just kind of obvious considering that it already messes with someone’s ability to recall information, as well as ability to respond. Or how about not feel like doing much.

So in the study, the group that could not LEGALLY get pot had improved numerical skills. Hummm.
Well No $hit Sherlock!
Explains why the left is promoting pot.

I mean, hey man, like I’m totally wasted, so what’s a `two’ anyway?
I owe President Obama an apology. All this time I thought he was lying when he said his budgets were cutting the deficit. Now I know he really just couldn’t get the math right.
Ricardo charges $15 to mow a lawn, and he gives 1/3 to his assistant Pedro. QUESTION: How long did it take Ricardo to swim to Miami?
Bobby has six apples, Suzie has nine apples, and Rufus has four apples. QUESTION: From whom did Rufus steal his apples?
Jefferson is meeting Shaneequa at the movies at 6 o’clock. It’s 5:40, and Jefferson is 7 miles away. QUESTION: Who is Jefferson’s biological father?
Hell!My math skills sucked from day one and I never touched the stuff.I could never understand math no matter how much I studied.That true to this day.
