Let's Meet Our Good Pal:
CaptainLucid
I decided that after 1255 profile views maybe I should deliver something. I am wicked intelligent. 1560 SAT when it was still 1600. I also made a habit of getting in house suspensions for refusing to do menial repetitive tasks like school work. There solution was to send me to a hall in the office that contained copies of all the reading books. Like throwing Brer Rabbit in the briar patch. I attended college in IL on a full tuition scholarship because I was a national merit scholar. I could have attended any college I wanted like UC Berkeley but this was when the UC fees were going on over 100% raise each year as the republicans gutted the system. I knew a good deal was to trade my achievement for over $40,000 at a second tier but great teaching university. The problem was the midwest. I am a born and raised as a SF Bay citizen and the weather, the land, and the politics is a league above except for the republicans who exist only to make sure our budget is a disaster.
