There's nothing wrong with continuing to learn outside of school.


Often it was when I was still in school.  I won the school geography bee.
I've given it serious thought. I must scorn the ways of my family, and seek a Japanese woman to yield me my progeny. He shall live in the lands of the east, and be well tutored in his sacred trust to weave the best traditions of Japan and the Sacred South together, until such time as he (or, indeed his house, which will periodically require infusion of both Southern and Japanese bloodlines of note) can deliver to the South it's independence, either in this world or in space.  -Lettow April of 2011

Raz is right. -MadImmortalMan March of 2017

You get used to it.

Not really. I'm not used to my country being an international embarrassment.  That's what Italy is supposed to be for.

Now we can concentrate on the good food and fashion Italy brings us.  The US - well.  There is always barbecue.

Interesting. In Spain ñapa has come to define shoddy work, usually done in a hurry.

The medievals were only too right in taking nolo episcopari as the best reason a man could give to others for making him a bishop. Give me a king whose chief interest in life is stamps, railways, or race-horses; and who has the power to sack his Vizier (or whatever you care to call him) if he does not like the cut of his trousers.

Government is an abstract noun meaning the art and process of governing and it should be an offence to write it with a capital G or so as to refer to people.

I don't think we'll ever know if he really said that, but he did really type that.

He must have confused Kansas with Bangladesh.

And there is nothing useful in memorizing factoids in school.

Rote learning gives one a base of knowledge. You're wrong.
