Question 1:

If you knew a woman who was pregnant, who had 8 kids already, three who
were deaf, two who were blind, one mentally retarded, and she had syphilis,
would you recommend that she have an abortion?

Read the next question before looking at the response for this one.

Question 2:

It is time to elect a new world leader, and only your vote counts. Here are the facts about the three candidates.

Candidate A -- Associates with crooked politicians, and consults with astrologists. He's had two mistresses. He also chain smokes and drinks 8 to 10 martinis a day.

Candidate B -- He was kicked out of office twice, sleeps until noon, used opium in college, and drinks a quart of whiskey every evening.

Candidate C -- He is a decorated war hero. He's a vegetarian, doesn't smoke, drinks an occasional beer and never cheated on his wife.

Which of these candidates would be your choice?

Decide first ... no peeking, then scroll down for the response.

Candidate A is Franklin D. Roosevelt.

Candidate B is Winston Churchill.

Candidate C is Adolph Hitler

And, by the way, on your answer to the abortion question:

If you said, "YES!" ...

you just killed Beethoven.

Pretty interesting isn't it? Makes a person think before judging someone. Wait till you see the end of this note! Keep reading ...

Never be afraid to try something new ...

Remember ... Amateurs built the ark ... Professionals...built the Titanic!

And Finally ... can you imagine working for a company that has a little more than 500 employees and has the following statistics:

29 have been accused of spousal abuse
7 have been arrested for fraud
19 have been accused of writing bad checks
117 have directly or indirectly bankrupted at least 2 businesses
3 have done time for assault
71 cannot get a credit card due to bad credit
14 have been arrested on drug-related charges
8 have been arrested for shoplifting
21 are currently defendants in lawsuits
84 have been arrested for drunk driving in the last year...

Can you guess which organization this is?

Give up yet?

It's the 535 members of the United States Congress.

The same group of idiots that crank out hundreds of new laws each year designed to keep the rest of us in line.

Mhm, Winston Churchill.

I said no.

I said C. But drug use is kind of a shallow way to judge people.

I said the US government, though I didn't know which part.

That's why you pick candidates basedd on issues, and not values.

as for "Remember ... Amateurs built the ark ... Professionals...built the Titanic! "

Amateurs built a bunch of ships that fails while professionals built many working ships. And the titanic didn't crash on its own, it hit an iceburg.

I would go with the abortion.
Sorry B, with all due respect to you and your compositions, such a terrible gene record shouldn't be recommended another birth (and you were born deaf too, in the end, remember?).

And I went with cherchil.
So he was a crappy tactician, but boy, he had vision, have you listened to his speeches?
His heart was in the right place.
And unlike rest of pansys, he didn't stand still and said yea lets suck hitler's cock enough times maybe he'll be satisfied and go away.

I went with you shouldn't be even reading these emails in the first place. Also, add a few more FW: to your topic's title.

The Titanic is/was an embodiment for one of humanity's worst shortcomings - pride.
They actually truely believed they made a ship so awesome, the peak of engeering capability, as that it couldn't possibly sink.
And to add sin to crime, they neglected to outfit it as appropriate per safety standards with accompanying rescure-boats (well, it souldn't sink, right? so why bother...

)

So, when the ship did crash and sunk, the passengers had no where to go and it's why so many of them died (there were like 9 boats out of required 100 or so) and why this blunder is so well known.

there's no way you could have rebuilt the gene pool of all species from just two of each kind (over the last ~7000 years). The ark is more of a fable than a true account.

Plus God was helping Noah, and God is omnipotent so of course the ship didn't sink.

where did you get this information from?

Cyan~Fire · Posted: Wed Sep 14, 2005 4:07 pm *Post maybe stupid* Post subject:

90% of statistics are made up on the spot.

Now for some real statistics on races passing the Florida Comprehensive Assessment Test in my school (it is ludicrously easy):

White: 65% reading, 84% math.
Black: 18% reading, 42% math.
Hispanic: 26% reading, 58% math.
Asian: 78% reading, 94% math.
Indian: 67% reading, 100% math.

You know, I really try not to make assumptions based on race (I've met very many smart blacks and hispanics), but seriously.

Cyan, there is a larger percentage of African Americans in low income areas than Whites in the same areas. Lower income schools do not offer the same level of schooling, therefore the scores are lower.

If you judge people off of statistics than I'm glad I don't know you.

So, indians and asians are smarter than the average american, no news there.

I think the titanic movie got one of the best endings in any movie.
The only way it would've been better was if some ice golem rose up and started beating de caprio to death then tossing him into the sea to resurface inside a block of ice.

OK, if you'll concentrate on African Americans, I will too. Statistics from other schools in the area (reading only):

White: 59%, Black: 11%.
White: 50%, Black: 30%.
White: 53%, Black: 20%.

OK, those were the first three schools I looked at, selelcted just because I recognized the names (so no manipulation of statistics here). If you want to do your own research, here's the site. Check the "School Improvement Plans".
