I got zinged...

We all want confirmation of our beliefs and I am just as guilty. I just got burned - badly - by a site I have followed in the past - but just cut my ties with - Down With Tyranny.

The post I just deleted, but which probably went out to News Readers (those posts are not reversible) noted a study which proclaimed the IQ levels of Fox viewers were lower than average. It was a hoax - one I should have caught.

I apologize for forwarding that incorrect data.

Joke Time

A man enters a bar and orders a drink. The bar has a robot bartender. The robot serve's him a perfectly prepared cocktail, and then asks him, "What's your IQ?"

The man replies, "150."

The robot proceeds to make conversation about global warming factors, quantum physics and spirituality, biomimicry, environmental interconnectedness, string theory, nano-technology, and sexual proclivities. The customer is very impressed and thinks, "This is really cool."

He decides to test the robot. He walks out of the bar, turns around, and comes back in for another drink. Again, the robot serves him the perfectly prepared drink and asks him, "What's your IQ?"

The man responds "about 100."

Immediately the robot starts talking, but this time, about football, NASCAR, baseball, supermodels, favorite fast foods, guns, and women's breasts.

Really impressed, the man leaves the bar and decides to give the robot one more test. He heads out and returns, the robot serves him and asks, “What’s your IQ?"

The man replies, "Err, 50, I think."

And the robot says... real slowly...

"So............... ya gonna vote for Bush again?
