    I'm glad I managed to get through school and was lucky enough to do it with grants. Sadly it has done very little for me. What I am doing now anyone can do with a bit of inspiration. While I hesitate to call the whole college system a shame it has become big business and it makes me sick. They would like you to think no one can do anything or has ever done anything without a degree.

    Not sure if comments...

    ...are for or against education.

    Needless to say, I wouldn't trust someone who never went to school to legally represent me, remove my appendix or teach my children.

    That's exactly what degrees do. I don't fix computers with anything I learned getting my associates or A+ certification, but people like to see that I have those things. My history degree is something else, people know right away that I'm educated by the way I talk and write and they tend to automatically shun me for it while claiming they just aren't as "smart". Combine that with the fact that most people are duped by talk radio psuedo-political history and don't want to hear any details and I have an irrelevant and useless degree. Unless I just wanted to use the fact that I have a bachelor's to ascended the greasy poll .. er .. corporate ladder, it's just four years of "character building" experience. It's neat to not need to look at polls to figure out which candidates are going to get elected (it's always the prettiest one), or when the stock market is going to crash, but I haven't figured out how that knowledge equates to power or money. I definitely wouldn't discourage people from going to college though, but I would encourage some people to go to trade school instead.

    I'm not sure if that's disgusting or awesome.

    I just killed this in my neighbor's back yard, it was hiding from lawn mowers under her bay window just inside the framing.

    Apparently it was a harmless bull snake, and the thought of eating it makes me nauseous. It did have some pretty good meat on it though at six foot long. My oil field worker neighbor and I couldn't tell what it was, so naturally we killed it rather than trying to trap it.
