Absoutely not. I've done it often enough and I'm proud of Mrs. Wave
and our kids for their accomplishments.
Out freakin' standing.
What's his course of study?
Well this is the "cross we must bare" ..... he is going to get his PHD
in Philosophy and become one of those freaking liberal professors. On a
positive note, he would rather teach overseas so he won't be
corrupting our students. - Hide quoted text -

I know, mine too. So much education, so indoctrinated by the psudo-
intellectuals she surrounds herself with.


I think that is part of the learning experience and growth experience
for all of us. Think back to when you were 21-23 yrs old and compare
your perception of the world and beliefs then to your beliefs today.

All in all, I have been pleased with the young adults I have meet. They
might be naive and are looking for and expecting utopia, but I know I
was very similar when I was their age.

I keep telling her, if you are 20 and you are not a liberal, you have
no heart. If you are 40 and still a liberal, you have no brain. She's

Careful, with all that education, she might tell you the origins of that
quote. It came from a French monarchist.

"Not to be a republican at twenty is proof of want of heart; to be one at
thirty is proof of want of head." Francois Guizot (1787-1874) ;-)

Lessee heah

"Proof -of-want-of-head" from a guy that lived between 1787 and
1874,

Was he meaning that when thirty yr.s old,you are wanting to persue the
need of knowledge and common sense?

OR ...

It is your desire to be able to keep your head attached to your
shoulders???

I was learning how to be an Artilleryman. Yes, my perception of the world
