  1. I don't know. I was not given the secret decoder ring. But being an old grey haired guy from the way back era of the 60' and 70's I STILL have my slip stick aka slide rule. I can multiple and divide on it.
    I hate with a passion all liberals who are responsible for deliberately mal-educating children to be dumber than the generation before them. Along with lawyers, politicians and bankers, we need to hang teachers for as well.
