But you're right, it doesnt mean anything - i apparently have an absurdly high IQ, and i can tell you first hand that it doesnt help me one bit. I'm paradoxically a certified dumbass - but you all already knew that, right?

Thanks for sparing us by not unabashedly posting your numbers :ahem:

I still cant believe Bush is in the 120s. Does he just act dumb as some sort of quasi-drunken fighter maneuver to trick other world leaders into thinking he is a moron???

Hahahaha as if there were that many people born into wealthy families.

I was under the impressions that if you were born wealthy, you feel guilty and become a democrat. If you earned your money, you naturally become a republican. =)

Bush isn't dumb per-say. But he isn't the brightest individual around either. He is a average person. The difference is he has some very smart individuals around him. You can't discredit rove and others, they are the back bone to his presidency.

Also not to defend him, but any average individual makes mistake, but people with public life have theres repeated over and over. Still do we really want a average individual running our country?

-Edit-
Guess so since the majority vote for him...shrug

I took them when I was in every step of my education. You seem to forget this isn't my first language. I got a perfect on the SAT, if you really must know. Also this is a forum on the web and I post as fast as I can since Im usually multi-tasking.

You scored in the 99.975 percentile and attended University of Texas at Austin? Not saying it's a bad school because they have a good law program but as an undergrad?....

BTW, I’m usually running scenarios with potential clients, babysitting lenders/title companies, ordering supplies dealing with mortgage reps, brokers and walk-in's all day long. Nobody cares if you multi-task either!

I made it into several Ivy league schools actually. The difference is that my whole family moved to Austin so we would all go to UT. My two older siblings both went and I followed and now my little brother should be following. I interviewed at Rice and got asked to go to several other Ivy league schools. I also played soccer and I was very good.

You forget this is my THIRD language, I have the excuse that when Im rushed I usually revert back to spanish grammar and spelling of words. But to me personally my biggest flaw is my lack of grammar and spelling skills in english. Thank god I still did well when I studied. Also that was a responce to HellaDumb. Don't see why you jumped in.

I didn't want to compare penises. I was honestly wondering how to find out my IQ.

divide by three = IQ



Oh, here's a clear look at where people live (from one of the links posted above) Compare this to the red/blue map and you can see why the election was close. Kerry dominated areas of high pop. density. There are countless things people can infer from this fact, correctly and incorrectly. I find it quite intriguing and very telling. ... infer for yourself- I won't pollute your mind, that is... assuming you haven't already read my other posts regarding this notion .
