Sorry to hear that.
Perhaps if you behaved more gallantly, they wouldn't keep coming after you with a shovel.

I took an online Jeopardy tryout test years ago.  You need to get 35 right out of 50, and I was 28 correct answers short of that target.  :blush:

Hey, I got to put my teachers thinking I was retarded in.
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

Is there such a thing as "especially failed" when you get 7 out of 50 correct?

I used to be involved in the Federalist Society, in a pretty significant way.

I still retain a certain fondness for Leo Strauss.

Turns out it can be treated with standard antibiotics.
I think that's why the right is so opposed to making health care more available.

I was interested in the Federalist Society, before I found out it didn't exist to teach people how to be more like Alexander Hamilton. :(

So a quick check of my bike journey records ( :nerd: ) reveal this odd fact about myself, previous to the bus journey I hadn't been inside or used any form of motor vehicle for ......   291 days.   :huh:

What do you do when it's raining?
To sleep, perchance to dream. But in that sleep of death, what dreams may come?

It doesn't rain that often, though yesterday I got wet, it's not a problem, the right gear and a warm house to go home offer a nice solution.
