BrentD asked: Now Mr. Vocabulary Man, how is it that you didn't know what a Renaissance Man was? For a frustrated English major, you sure are a ball of contradictions. But it does make you more entertaining.
The guy least likely to understand or endorse, and accept for himself, the term "Renaissance Man" - more than likely is closest to fitting that term.

Just one small editorial correction. Otherwise, that's exactly right.

I'd expect a super-educated omniscient, unfazed by and inured to the plurality of sillybobbles, to know the distinction between incredulous and incredible. Sincere apologies to all � In a moment of smart-assed recklessness, I succumbed to a sin that I despise � the despicable ad hominem avoidance of logic, courtesy, and the issue in question. I should've reserved my pie hole for enjoyment of neighbor Sonya's incredibly delicious prize-winning pies, or at most have posted no more than incredulous � (of a person) unable to accept or believe, skeptical incredible � (of a concept) hard to believe, unbelievable Please visualize soulful brown eyes downcast in sadness, a stub of a tail trying to hide between my legs, and a salty droplet splatting into the dust. I'm ashamed but can not ask you to forgive me, because I can not forgive myself. I'm sorry. really

You are dead-on about the Texas panhandle and the wind - I drove across there with a canoe strapped to my roof in 2001 and I thought the wind was gonna peel my truck open like an old sardine can. Did you see the World's Tallest Crucifix?

Okay, then. Since you are the wordsmith, look up the definitions of disingenuous, hypocrite, an mirror. You have been doggin' me in ad hominem fashion for a fair while now. I'll try to brush up on my vocabulary in the meantime and also try to reconquer of the autocorrection gremlins. You have a happy evening now.

Yeah, i saw the crucifix and immediately thought of oral roberts. Had a shirt tail relative once owned a farm near odessa tx. They found oil on it, and she never really liked it because of the smell. When she died, they found canciled checks to Oral totaling close to one million dollars. Ohio's vote yesterday regarding public unions was an example of what i was talking about in that area's slide into purdition.
