At the risk of sounding barbaric, there are days, particularly during rush hour, when someone is texting or somehow f**king with their phone and hence backing up traffic, I want to drag them out of their car and pelt them to within an inch of their life with the cell phone of everyone they are holding up behind them. Everyone is invited! New or used cell phones are equally welcomed.

Pussy-ass parents? Crazyjj - come see me and we'll "discuss" this label. Maybe my 4 sons and I (one is a former Army paratrooper and another plays rugby in college) can "enlighten" you that not all parents fit your label.

The educational system in the USA is an abomination!! I for one T-O-T-A-L-L-Y agree with Mr. Bernstein. This "well rounded" theory is for folks who can't find their a$$hole with a map, a seeing-eye dog and a compass!! The needs to be options - PERIOD. My son, who is about to graduate high school can do calculus in his head. I've watched him and it makes me very proud. Granted, he's very challenged writing a good sentence but what a waste of time and money sending him to classes in college to learn more of this BS when he could take his math and science skills to levels I can't imagine. And yes, for myself, I was all A's and B's in math and straight A's in physics in high school. College - well, all I saw were toooooo many self-righteous narcissistic a$$holes teaching and the people at the top who ran them only thinking of how much more money they could charge for tuition the next quarter. I wonder where I could have gone had I not had take classes to study "the impact on world history of chicken-shit in southern France in the late 1800's" and other such courses.

Now, all of you who attack David Bernstein, I have maps, dogs, and compasses for you to help you get off my lawn. Have a nice day! :-)

Yeah - this one got my britches in a bunch BIG time......

>> There is a reason the rich are rich. They are smarter then the poor people.

While I agree with the majority of your post - the last statement is just flat incorrect sir!!

Some are, yes. But how many PhD's are millionaires? Uncle Bill and Microsoft kinda blows you theory to hell and back!! Do you need more examples? Pro athletes, movie stars.........it's a long list.

A great many "rich people" (and I'm not saying ALL) are nothing more than the equivalent of a pack of butt sniffing dogs....also known as "the Good 'Ol Boys" network. I live in Mayberry USA which is absolutely F-U-L-L of Republicans so I've seen this first hand.

Wait - wait - wait just a red white & blue minute! The US government permits (meaning does not harass unless something like this happens) business' to operate. By proxy, the gov is suppressing free speech. I have NO DOUBT IT DID "discuss" this with Amazon. Again, you are as free as your government tells you that you are....in any country!

I always enjoy the silence on the other end of the phone when they ask my "secret question" I answer with "I don't fucking know"....which is the correct answer!!

Simple - last count in 2004 is that we had over 59 million hypocritical morons that can vote!

Oh hell no!! After many decades of IT in addition to clueless management and whiny users on top of depression, I've found something very positive!! I get thousands and thousands of Miller Beer points for all the drinking I do.
