If its at a government level... money also buys power

In case you haven't read, we're in an economic crisis. Yet we still will always have the option of killing everyone around us if we start to go down. A good analogy would be the Pokemon, Electrode or it's basic evolution, Voltorb. When they sense the battle going down hill, self-destruct, and you take the other guy out with you. Geodude and his evolutions can also use this useful move.
Q. Are you Australian?
A. Seriously? Have you not watched Steve Irwin? Crocodile Dundee? Skippy?
Do I sound like that? No. Not every one sounds like a Cockney or The Queen. Scousers and Geordies would confuse the fuck outta you guy!
So just because we don't speak like that, don't confuse us with the criminals we sent down under *cough*Stred*cough*
Q. Are you from London?
A. Is that the only city in England that Americans know of? I did once meet an American that asked me if I was from Manchester, I was impressed. But seriously? I could name hundreds of American cities, and dozens of cities in countries around the world.
Q. Can you say something English?
A. Excuse me? :wacko:
I decided i'd make this thread because im just over a month away until next visit to my beloved America (Thanks Giving). I get the same questions asked every single time I go to America, and being in a US Army family, i've been to America alot. It was funny at first, but now it just too expected. But why is it all ways those same questions? You know, I could understand the 2nd question, but the 1st and 3rd? Seriously, WTF!.
It's not all bad, once the girls know i'm English, it's "Hi, i'm <Insert Female Name>, I noticed you're English, I think that's really cute".
New girl every time. Pow!

I dont remember saying you were 'all' morons? Just a select few... I meant that most Brits believe America is led by morons, whats that got to do with studying here? Some of my professors are the best in their field, that doesnt mean the people in government follow the same example.
(the ironic thing, is that most of my best professors are from Europe and India.. funny that?)

ERRR isnt that the point of teaching?...
..To be taught something you dont know, by someone who does know?
who knows their individual reasons, but I know most were invited by the university to teach. Also, the uni I go to is one of the best in the world and I couldnt be happier there.
What people arent getting is that there is a difference between professors teaching at a university and people leading in government.
Even most americans believe their government (Bush) is incompetent but I dont see any of them dropping out of college because of it?
But as I said, some of my (american) profs are the best in their field.. no one can argue with that.
