Nope. My definition of ignorance and intelligece stands. It is a moebius
strip of truth.  A truly intelligent man knows he's ignorant, but has no idea really how ignorant he is.  An ignorant man, however, in his insecurity only brags of that which he knows and that which he thinks he knows.

Isn't that a contradiction to you're definition of intelligence,
and of saying you're not intellignent?

Are you trying to confuse me?

I'm pretty ignorant, I fear.

And if you can come up with a definition like that, then? ....

That's the street smarts, dear. Intelligence, if I measure it correctly,
is knowing how ignorant you really are, which is probably tenfold your best estimate.

LOL

It's amazing the results a great looking teacher can have.

My senior year, I had this really hot teacher for English. My friends used to copy my notes from class, and make fun of me, cause I wrote EVERYTHING down. They'd jokingly say that I'd even written when the teacher left to go to the restroom.

Out of 200 students, I got an award for being one of the top 4 in English that year. I don't know which one of that 4 I was, as they didn't tell us.

You should've had me for a teacher: witty, irreverant, tall, handsome,
intelligent.  Okay, the first three are true, so shoot me.

I know, and my father was a history teacher, remember. lol.
I had no interest in history. I didn't sleep through it, but daydreamed through a large percentage of school when it didn't interest me. Even when it did actually.

I just posted the answer at the bottom of the page, Sunnybeach. Tell me
you were one of those people who slept through how you got here.  I might forgive you (I'm a Social Sciences teacher, remember).

I don't know the answer.

Other than the fact that they were all presidents?
