    He's made some posts that have a slight liberal bent.

    4-year college degree plus a private pilot certificate, where I probably learned more math/law/sciences/other stuff than I did in college. Certainly more fun and probably more educational than had I gone on to grad school.

    Done gradiated high school. Deciding upon a life of art at the cheapest possible rate, I enrolled in Ridgewood School of Art, a small local art school, wherin I got a damn good basic background in professional art. I dropped out my final semester to get a real job and save up to get married. The school didn't offer any kind of degree anyway.

    All this was, of course, in the 70s, just before computers, so most of what I learned in terms of materials and processes is no longer remotely valid in the real world.

    4 year degree.

    But for completeness you should have put a 2yr associates degree or something on that poll.

    Also, trade school would be a good thing to include.

    BS and currently in the 1 year Psychological Operations course. Makes college feel like a joke.



    However if Noriega can pass it so can I. :bergman:

    Oh....if we consider non-traditional edumication I have about 20 years worth of Air Traffic Control equipment repair.

    A lot of this counts toward my two-years credit (62 hours) worth of civilian college credits.
    So why no associate degree? I can't do college-level math. :blush:

    Hell, I can't do high-school level math! :mad:

    I have virtually no abstract-reasoning skills.
    However, I can still remember my first day of Spanish in 9th Grade (in 1976).

    Correction: He has made some posts that were blatent lies and proved he did not read posts or watch videos before commenting/insulting people over their content.

    Given how many liberals are in the green around here, you should know better than that.

    Oh. probably.

    I guess I just didn't pay that much attention to his posts - about on the level of Stargard or Aquaman.

    I did notice one tho that was short enough and to the point enough to notice it was of a liberal opinion and that was the only post of his that I'd noticed that had a bunch of negs. :shrug:

    But, I'm sure you're correct and it's just his lack of integrity.

    Didn't click any of your options because none of them fit. I've completed some college and still have some left to go before I get my degree. I'm beginning to wonder if it'll be worth all the stress, headache and shit I've gone through. And I'm pretty much afraid that it isn't.

    Dammit.

    College is always worth it!

    Those degrees look very impressive when you fill out your papers at the unemployment office...
