Your 'hood must look like a bus parking lot. How attractive.
Perhaps Canada kept your neighbor out because he was your
neighbor, and the Canadians didn't want someone in their country
who had been exposed to your filth.

As usual, you got it backwards.

As usual, your explanation of whatever was happening sucked. If only
something...anything...you posted had even a smidge of cleverness...
One of the great mysteries here is why your buddy "Eisboch" spent so
many posts trying to convince me you were "smart." This was
especially ironic, considering where and when he went to high
school, where he was amid some of the brightest, most advantaged
kids in southern Connecticut.

What can I say?
Were you one of the brightest, most advantaged kids in South
Connecticut?

I was among the brightest based on test scores, but certainly not
among the financially advantaged. I don't know that Eisboch was in
either group, but he had lots of very bright, advantaged kids at Amity
Regional High School during his time there. I knew and know more than
a few of those folks.


Given the demographics of New Haven you probably were among the brightest.
Where does your HS rank statewide?


I know you are not bright, but, as I have tried to explain previously,
mine and the class that followed were widely considered the apex of high
school accomplishment. In the decades that followed, the public school
system in New Haven went downhill but recently, like the city itself,
has been recovering. At the time I was at Hillhouse it was the
top-ranked public high school in the state most years, and in the top
three the other years. Not because of me, but I was there.


Assuming you are not lying, how did it go from top ranked to bottom ranked?
