sure it does. you just have to be a rich GOP contributor. then the

How about rich DNC contributors?

you mean both of them?

More millionaire Dems in Congress than Repubs. Soros, a plague on the
people of the earth, is rich Dem supporter.

DUH!! there are more dems in congress than there are repubs. kind of
like 'who's buried in grant's tomb'....

Even when there were less Dems, more dem rich.- Hide quoted text -

when? in 2003, 22 members of the senate were millionaire republicans;

Uh...it is Ms. Palin who brought up the lipstick issue and the
Republicans who tried to make a bigger issue of it.

Better the Republicans talk about lipstick than any serious issue.

That is the "Republican Way," to accuse their detractors of their own
tricks and lies. Rove taught them well but it's getting old, htey need
a new trick...


It may be getting old, but you have to remember that the voting bloc
includes millions of Boobus Americanus types who vote Republican because
they like receiving anal intercourse.

No, those are only the leaders. The Republican faithful are well-meaning
people who are typically uneducated, ignorant, christians who believe the
self-appointed snake-oil salesmen who run under the party banner.

The wackos we see here are their fringe elements and can safely be
ignored, except when they're lying too outrageously.

Well except at a University.


Most PhD's that I know should have never left the University.

Isn't PhD, Piled Higher and Deeper?

There is a little secret which I will share with you and only you.

It's called "quote early and quote often".

First, you look through the papers of the review committee's, and the
chairman's, papers, books, dissertations and monographs for anything
that even remotely touches on the subject matter for your thesis. And
by remotely, I mean even if you have to make it up remotely.

Then, in your introduction, you make sure you thank, with foot notes
to papers, books, dissertations and monographs (including the chairman
of your department if he isn't serving on the committee) for
clarifying, elucidating and in general assisting you in the
preparation of your thesis and dissertation.

In the body of the dissertation, footnote the hell out of it only make
sure you quote one of the review committee members - the rest must be
real books, papers, dissertations and monographs but if doesn't matter
as long as you use something from everybody on the committee. Make one
page entirely for footnotes for the preceding page and do that every
ten or so pages following the above procedure.

Use graphs, obscure types of data sets and lots and lots of color -
distracts from the fact that most of what you are writing is pure page
filler. If it's not a hard science paper, then use flow charts and
pictographs.

In concluding, make it really short and simple with plenty of praise
for the pioneering back ground work, blah, blah, blah.

And that's how you write a successful dissertation. :)

Why, you might ask, does it work? Pretty simple actually - the morons
on the committee will only look for their due credit and will look
through the bibliography and footnote annotation for references to
their work. They can't very well discredit their own achievement can
they? :)

And before you ask, no - I did not.

Hmmmm, my MSEE was muuuuch easier. 80

Want to know the complete and total truth?

Nobody on the my review committee had a clue about the subject matter
and took the recommendation of the Department Chair as to it's
validity - and she didn't have a clue and had to take the word of one
of the maybe 200 people in the world who actually did understand the
subject.

Absolutely true. :)

Anything to do with Klingons? 8)

Nope - although it might as well have been.

Hyperbolic Riemann Surfaces which are not parabolic and their use as
evaluative data sets in high energy particle analysis.

Aren't you glad you asked? :)

I was just reading about that very subject a few weeks ago. It really
didn't apply to my golf swing so I went on to other things. 8)

Non-rigid by definition. rigid by application.

The fun part of the whole exercise were the spherical harmonic maps
which once they were plotted, were quite beautiful and almost three
dimensional - which, oddly, would have taken them out of two space and
into three space which was not a result I expected, but it happened.

Three and a half years, 25 hours a week, tons of calculations, graphs,
formings and misformings, draft graphics, proofing, printing and
presentations.

Was it worth it? Yes because it was interesting and frankly, my one
and only single talent that I don't honestly have to work at -
nonsense came naturally to me - idiot savant like if you will (yes, I
said it). :)

And now, for someting completely different.

For some reason, the rear passenger tire on Mrs.Wave's town car is
flat.

I must analyze this. :)

HEY!!!!

Like this one?

Anybody who drives a car with the jet turbine intake sitting less than
a foot from his elbow can not possibly qualify as living in the real

Got a screen over the intake. Might be different if he tried to run it at
110% power.

Potentially yes.

However, it could be metamorphing into a different dimensional form or
even, which would be WAY cool, another universe.

There are theories which can account for that you know. :)
