I certainly hope you can listen to this wav file (http://www.jokes.thefunnybone.com/waves/disclaim.wav) :)
It begins with "These thin-skinned no-humor Pansies..." for those who had a hard time understand the beginning..(No offense my Liberal friends! ;) )

Bah! The majority of people are mean, greedy, stupid and easily distracted by shiny objects.
-
"I have great faith in the human race, but people drive me f***ing crazy!"
Nother wish I could remember where I heard that.
Hang in there udie

shaddup! you're making me want to go bass fishing!

most people suck
I'd be willing to bet that the AH crowd harbors more 'decent' people than the average cross section of America.

well, the odds are fairly good that most of the people here can at the very least turn on a computer and get it conected to the net. thats better than half the people out there.

Half the people you meet are above average

A Senior Trooper once told me that the speed limit is higher than the average IQ on the Interstate.

Sorry, but I genuinely like 95% of the people I meet. Sure there's some rats out there and stuff happens in a society that's beyond comprehension, but the vast majority of people are good people who try hard to raise their kids properly and do the right thing. I'm not that harsh on people but then again I'm not in a profession where all I see are the dregs of society. Anybody I talk to I generally get along well with.

I think you mean above the median :D

Ya know, basically what Elf said. Left or right or whatever, we all want the same thing, a healthy environment for our kids or ourselves to grow in. And for the most part it is a common ground we can meet on.

Not to mention it would be safe to say that almost everyone here could follow instructions to fill out a ballot properly ;)

one thing I like to think about, when I get frustrated by the constant parade of morons life brings past me.
"If we got rid of anyone who wasn't at least as smart as me, I'd be the dumbest S.O.B. here."
btw- Elfen,
"then again I'm not in a profession where all I see are the dregs of society." :confused:
do I remember wrong? or didn't I read here once that you where a lawyer? :p

I don’t know half of you half as well as I should like, and I like less than half of you half as well as you deserve.

if you work in/near law enforcement you are priveleged to see the losers of society...
that and the fact that resort towns tend to attract the riff-raff..
boy what a cross-section.

apathy, no, I'm not a lawyer. However, they do run in the family. One sibling, couple of cousins, some uncles, but not me. In fact one cousin gave up the profession and went on to become a teacher in Pinehurst, Idaho about twenty years ago. (He's recently retired.)
We never understood why he quit either. He had a nice pratice (divorce and family law), a great place in San Francisco, and was making a buttload of money. He suddenly moved to Pinehurst, bought a nice place where he could keep horses, became a High School English teacher and spent his spare time fly fishing and bow hunting (He's in the Polk and Young club several times.)
Now he writes articles for a travel magazine on how to travel on a budget. (writing runs in the family too.) He did one article on traveling the Outlaw Trail on horseback, one on Europe on a rail pass and one on camping in Hawaii.
Between all the traveling he does and spending all that time wading in a trout stream or standing in a tree stand waiting for an elk or bear I'll never understand how he could give up the good life of the three martini lunch, the San Francisco apartment and the six figure income.
As if turning his back on his profession and the city life weren't bad enough he became a conservative too!! We don't like to talk about him because he's pretty whacked out.

sigh....
Every family has its black sheep.
My oldest sister has her Phd. and writes for a living. She just sits at her home in Colorado and hacks out stories for school reading books and gets paid to do it.
Then she had the nerve to become a Born Again Christian.... sheesh. I don't know where she gets the nerve to show up for the family gatherings.

MT I feel your pain bud. We visited my cousin a few months ago and he actually was flying an American Flag over his house! We were so embarrassed. I'm glad we don't know anybody in Idaho.
Does your sister have one of those chrome fish things on her car? COD, I'll bet you duck under the dash when she gives you rides. I know I would.
