No. Again it's the worthless EPA hating on us because they think the desert shouldn't have any dust blowing around. Typical Lefty logic.

It is wonderful to see how well a thread can go, when you show liberals something that they agree with

But in all honesty, this study was the kindest to the conservatives that I could find ! The others were far less complementary in their opinions of conservatives ?

What I found surprising was the statement that the average Conservatives had an I.Q. of 95, and the average liberal had an I.Q. of 106 ? Not that much of a difference, but enough, interesting ?

Wow! So 112 would be.....

But, then again that was highschool----several head injuries, 11,000 gallons of beer, three pounds of weed and several hits of Purple MicroDot ago.

Same here in VA. And, I've gotten one of those tickets. But, first the cop made me get the garden hose and put it out. Then, he writes the ticket. Afterwards, he tells me if someone had called the fire department, not only would I have gotten a ticket, but I would be paying the city for the firemens time as well.

I miss my burn barrel.

The measurement of intelligence is inexact at best. On the other hand, most of us can recognize it when we see it (and the lack thereof).

I haven't lived in a place where you can burn trash since I was a kid, although our house does have a little incinerator in the chimney. We have a tree that shreds so many branches that I could have a bonfire about once a month.

It is generally accepted that college entrance signifies an IQ of 120.

The problem is that there are so many different tests that the number they provide is irrelevant. Where the results fall on the standard Gaussian distribution is much more significant.

Tell me about fallen branches, the first mowing in spring is a chore; stop the tractor, jump off, toss the branch ito the woods . . .
