Picture taken yesterday A classmate of mine sent me these nuggets of wisdom:
· If the only school curriculum allowed to explain how we got here is evolution, but the government stops a $15 million construction project to keep a rare spider from evolving to extinction ... you might live in a country founded by geniuses
but run by idiots.
· If an 80-year-old woman can be stripped searched by the TSA but a woman in a hijab is only subject to having her neck and head searched ... you might live in a country founded by geniuses but run by idiots.
· If your government believes that the best way to eradicate trillions of dollars of debt is to spend trillions more ... you might live in a country founded by geniuses but run by idiots.
I have added my own to this list:
· If you can buy two 16-ounce sodas, but not a 24-ounce soda because 24-ounces of a sugary drink might make you fat ... you must live in New York City.
· If you must choose between a madam and a John running for comptroller... you must live in New York City.
· If one of the candidates for mayor likes to take pictures of his Weiner... you must live in New York City.
· If you think that politicians who make stupid decisions can be rehabilitated and given a second chance to screw up... you must live in New York City.
· If you measure distance by time rather than miles... you must live in New York City.
· If you think everyone but you is rude... you must live in New York City.
