sometimes i feel like most people are not as smart as the people who are not as smart as me.
i realize that this sounds incredibly arrogant. sorry for that. but really people, how did we get to be so stupid?
things i have heard in real life:
"i think that van gogh (pronounced van-go-ch) guy painted that ceiling in italy"
"what language do they speak in italy?"
"is the gulf war in florida?"
"what time is the three o clock parade?"
and my absolute favorite,
Girl One: "the pope is not catholic he is jewish, he wears that little beanie on his head."

They are all in Bangalore, India, because if they stayed here they would be considered illegal aliens.
The only illegal aliens the US wants are the ones who will do the dirty jobs.
Pick tomatoes? we look the other way and setup day laborer sites so the rich can find you easier.

Lance Armstrong says that he "beat cancer" and his recovery wasn't a miracle (he divorced his wife shortly thereafter). With his absolute power over cancer, did he give it to Sheryl Crow out of spite? My simple minded coworker asked if you could "get" cancer by osmosis.
Hey Ray, did the assistant have any previous relations with Lance Armstrong? I think he may have humped cancer into submission and mastered it.

Thankfully, Lance Armstrong was nowhere near.
Many scholarly articles have been written to show how Acute Trauma Response accounts for suicidal reaction at witnessing a horrific event (i.e. Earthquake, George W. Bush speech).
