Your story about your brother reminds of an old essay by Leonard Reed (sp?) called "I Pencil". In that essay he explains how many agricultural and manufacturing processes are involved in producing one lousy pencil.

What the lefties don't get is that historically, for most of mankind, life was truly nasty, brutish and short.

If they take over it will be again. :-(

You scored 326 out of 350 possible points, or 93.14%

A
You should definitely vote.

I missed John Boehner and Ban Ki-moon. I don't have television- I've never actually seen either one of them before taking this quiz.

That was fun, thanks for posting this.

how great it would be to return to a 'pre-modern lifestyle'.

Note to squeamish: skip to next post now.

People like this need to experience the joys of pulling intestinal worms out of their rear ends with sticks, like our premodern ancestors.

That was fun and a perfect score to boot.

Well I would quibble with some of the titles. After Michael Moore the only choice that's logical is 'fat idiot' so I had to pick 'film director'.

LOL! I guess you didn't try to point out the contradictions to him?

Very revealing (and funny too)! I remember listening to the Ludlow Porch radio show and they had a funny fake commercial raising money for bipedal Americans. Many people do not know that JFK, Marilyn Monroe and Elvis were all bipedal. Give to the bipedal fund today!

They had a great piece on recycling which boiled down to being a costly, harmful activity for things that aren't aluminum. Worth looking at especially when they pretend to be doing a pilot program to add more bins to curb-side recycling.

You know, it's stories like that that make me thank G-d that I was born in modern times. I mean, I got all that "roughing it" crap out of my system during boy scouts. For me, "roughing it" means staying at a Motel 6!

When I think about what Lewis and Clark went through, or more importantly, President (the General) Washington went through at Valley Forge! (Shudder!)

I don't even like going outside anymore!

Reminds me of The Man Show collecting signatures for ending women's suffrage.

Yeah, but that one (the one banning women's suffrage) was a good idea. I'm all for that one (unless they're a SAS or Lady Freeper!)

Anybody else remember the way Algore's ratings spiked upwards with women voters when he laid that deep, french kiss on tipper? Or my step-mother's answer when I asked her how we could be causing "global warming" on Mars, since the Martian ice caps are melting: "Well, we must be doing something that's causing it! I mean, why else could it be getting hotter there?"

I volunteer every female relative I have as the first in line to lose their votes!

But it should be banned.. Research has shown that almost everybody that dies has consumed dihydrogen monoxide within the past few hours.

Most people, when they return from camping, extol the virtues of finally being able to use a real bathroom.

I scored 350 also. I had the same quibble with Moore, Baldwin and Sheen. There was no choice for "idiot" so I had to go with film director and actor.

I had a harder time recognizing Christina Whatshername than I did Ban Ki-Moon.

Re: DontVote.org score:

I took the "Vote/Don't Vote quiz, and scored a 336 out of 350 (96%) on it. The result was that, according to DontVote.org, I should definitely vote. I wasn't sure who the photo of (who was revealed to be) Ban Ki Moon was, nor what he did. I knew he wasn't 2 of the other 4, so I could have guessed and had a 50% shot at getting it right, but I just chose "I don't know" instead.

But I did have a problem with a few of the photos there. When they put up a photo of Alec Baldwin, I didn't see the title of "failed radio talk show host and notorious wife beater", or with Paris Hilton, I didn't see the title of "stupid, filthy whore."
