lol kens,
Don’t get me wrong,
I’m all about those putting in hard work and effort to get somewhere.
In fact, these courses I’m talking about are passable with enough time and effort.
Like you say, however, there are limitations. Like I stated about the NBA. I could go out and train like a mofo for 60 hours a week. I’m still not going to the NBA.
I could learn defense/offense strategy and passing techniques all day long. I’m still not going to the NBA.
I’m advocating for a re-thinking of our attitude towards certain expectations about intelligence. Like we’re not supposed to really talk about it in school.
As a parent, I understand full well that we can talk about the little league, the basketball league and who can swim at age 4.
Any mention of grades and progress however is studiously avoided.
also they were SO much makeup that they look horrible. a lot of times, the winner looks much better in the press than on the show itself. phyllis diller face is NOT attractive
dibs- of course you do, but it’s a bit different , no? And yes, it is a beauty pageant- one that masqueraded as a scholarship for years. And yes, many of them sounded completely idiotic- but not necessarily because of no brains. These women are trained and rehearsed and scripted til their eyes bug out. By the time they get to the questions, they are so nervous and so schooled in being very careful in what they say, they can’t think straight. But when you read some of their bios- these are very accomplished women.
*rolling eyes* Oh, ok- you’re hugged, benson. 🙂 I won’t lie- I kept your post on the tech conference you went you where you spoke about the future of computer technology lecture someone gave. Very fascinating.
i will also not be posting here if it’s all cluttered up and stupid looking with idiotic avatars and people posting pictures.
*rob*
Ditto, a bunch of us losers went over to the site to test it out.

Benson, looks like the ladies all came out of hiding AFTER you showed up onto the scene. Must be the hat

how come there are rarely attractive women in the attractive-women contests?
