Bad syntax is all. This is what happens when one is sleep deprived. My goal is to catch up a bit this weekend.

Now that we are calming down, Stan, let me remind you of how important surveying and tree surgery BOTH are. As you stated, your profession dealt with math and analysis using good observation abilities. The same is true for trees.
I have to KNOW approximately where any tree I fell will land. I have to KNOW how to cut it properly so it does as I need it to do---sometimes within 3' of a house and other things. Putting a 10-ton object slowly and carefully into a small space is no joke and it can certainly kill or injure you. Just like the complex problems of our County and nation WE DISCUSS, I have to figure out how to solve a Tree Surgery problem one step at the time. In the process, I sometimes change my steps as the tree directs me with its reaction to my cuts. Were I to take a meat ax to the tree it would certainly die. If I become a partner with God's way of letting trees live---they respond and heal to continue their lifetime. Some I have worked on down here date to 200+ years. That is frontier days and Bath has been here 300+ years! I have cut trees since I was a child on granddaddy's SC farm near Greenville. I, first, watched them do it. Next I did some limb cutting. I always loved to split wood for my grandmother's stove and go with her in the early morning to gather eggs, milk the cow, and just be there as she moved around her kitchen. I was her little helper --- getting my pay in love and fresh buttered biscuits. I could not wait for my grandfather to get up because the real adventures began --- but being near and seeing my loving grandmother bring order and sustenance into an empty kitchen was the real blessing! She happened to be an early graduate of Greenville Women's College --- now Furman University. That was rare in her day! My most precious possession in my tiny cottage is her milk churn. It's not fancy, but the ovaled out wood cover was formed as she sang hymns and churned up the butter with all due patience and love. . . |
Stan---I presume your thanks to Lynn deals with the deletion of the Obama hate-and now having the article deal with the debate and candidates. It takes a wise man to listen to a woman. I do it all the time for the better.
Maybe that is why women in politics is not a bad idea . . . |
Thank-you Lynn for your help in fixing this post.

Gene: Stop the '"Hate" Speech'. Your judgmental attitude, as a Liberal and without any cognitive reasoning, is making you sound egregiously stupid.
Now, if you want to be thought of a stupid, keep it up. |
STAN ~~~ stop the HATE / I stop reminding you of it before it gets you in trouble with the Devil . . . It's for your own good no matter how much you flinch, buddy.
|
I have no prejudices.
But I am smart, and I don't tolerate stupid politicians from either party, and you do. I can think well beyond the group ideal, and you really should try that at some point. And Gene, you need to lose the '"Hate" Speech'. It is getting really old. One more thing: I'm proud that I spent my formative years as a surveyor. The occupation and my classroom education helped me to understand the need for the science of math, solving structural problems with logic and math, which indeed aids in my clarion perspective. There is nothing wrong with understanding finite problem solving. George Washington was a surveyor in his formative years, and it surly did not disturb his cognitive reasoning. |
I went to Emory to have my Southern prejudices and stupid scraped off ~~~ and what have you done to educate your prejudices, Stan????
**Survey property??? **Write hate-filled article??? **Call people names with whom you don't agree??? Before you splutter and rant ~~~ Emory did the ONLY Affirmation Vietnam rally in the face of Liberalism up at northern elite schools and draft card burners and gays on the West Coast, buddy. Proceed with your outlook with great caution as I am warming up my chipper . . . |
Your analysis of Conservatives shows that you possess a Liberal mind, which means you are limited in your abilities to understand real issues, the rule of law, even simple math.
All you understand in 'group think', and you are not alone. If you ever want to be part of the solution, you need to study up, learn stuff. All of you do. Your words are riddled with inaccuracies, and these times will not support that supreme lack of intellect. Those days are over ... for now. |
Stan---your brand of Conservatism was put into practice after WWI in Germany. They were considered the smartest and most advanced country in Europe---but their hate and obsession with white purity turned them into the Holocaust---killing Gypsies, homosesxuals, Jews, and running off those who saw through it . . .

Gene, you're a Liberal. You have a Liberals' mind. This does not allow you the ability to see that the Republican nomination process is not about making Liberals comfortable with that process, it is about finding the individual to save the nation for everyone, Liberals included.
Remember, Liberals don't fix stuff, they break stuff, hopefully not irrevocably. Look at this way, the truth of it. Today's Liberals exist from 'talking points' / group think and do not have the cognitive ability to devise right from wrong, truth from lies. You are a victim of that, and you are not the only one. There are enough of you now, we could lose this Republic. I have been sounding this alarm for years, like a wee voice in the wilderness, and there is good news. Awakening thoughtful People are hearing me now, and they are hearing the others, like me. I see the beginnings of an awakening, and the welcome by those who always possess constructive, clarion thought. |
I'm not believing you took an article on Republican Candidates to spend more time bashing Obama and Clinton ~~~ talk about deception!!! It is like the Anti-abortion people luring in a pregnant women as if they perform abortions --- and then they fill her with guilt and angst when she is already to the edge of insanity.
So where is the real analysis of Republican Candidates, old sport??? I see a CLOWN ACT and now you are trying to make us feel sorry for the ever arrogant and abusive Donald Trump??? Jeb pretty much made a non-impression. Huckabee did about as good a job as any along with the Hispanic shoe-in and the ever-fake Carson---who did some good lines as well. *Can the party of White Hate field a black guy and fool us all? *Jindal is even from India and that should provide some pay-back for the ever offensive birther claims toward the President. *I felt like I was more at a beauty contest or sports event than a Debate. MEANWHILE ~~~ the great Peacemaker goes on / Hillary is not bowing to the server BS / it comes out today that Reagan and Bush flushed millions of private messages off their identical server ~~~~ AND YOU IGNORE THE CHARGES OF GENEVA CONVENTION VIOLATIONS OF HUMAN RIGHTS FROM Bush / Cheney. I am laughing my "you-know-what" off, Stan . . . |
