there's only one thing that can get me out of my house on a lazy friday morning/afternoon

had to go downstairs myself to get it since no one (aka mom, dad, commando brother) didn't want to do a good deed by helping me get it.

Oh wells as they say! if you want it done, you do it your self.

I love this song.
Listen to the lyrics.
One of the best lyrics ever written.
Brett Dennen. Go check out his other song which is also another of my favourite, "Ain't no reason".

say whuutt.....

If one becomes conceited through the course of education, then education has failed you.
You would have totally missed the point of education and about being educated.
In short, you would have wasted your education.
Being educated is not about being above someone whom you deem as, 'uncouth' or 'uncultured', but rather it's about understanding colloquial speech and sub cultures, yes, real non-derogatory terms for 'uncouth', and 'unculturedness', mr and mrs. smart-ass.

Pardon my harshness for today's post. But really......

Isn't the whole point of education to Educate us about all things foreign and or otherwise condemned by people who do not know any better??

If you deem yourself educated, then, please, show something for it other than your piece of white paper. Show all that 'A' graded knowledge in Action.
Be kind.
Be understanding.
Be open.
Be critical about the things that matter.
Be ignorant of the things that don't.
Be empathetic.
Be nice.

Can you imagine the kind of world we would live in, if every 'educated' person did that?
