   I've got a revelation for you guys that I forgot to mention yesterday. Now please all my friends, sit down and strap yourself in before you read this, for this truly is a shock and awe moment. Are you ready ? Okay, here it goes.

   I read an article yesterday that says, al queda has infiltrated the ranks of the Syrian rebels. And not only that, they are becoming the dominating faction. OMG, who'd a thunk.
   I truly hope I didn't cause too much distress to you with this astonishing news.

   A fellow walked into a doctor's office and the receptionist asked him what he had. He said, "Shingles." So she took down his name, address, medical insurance number and told him to have a seat. A few minutes later a nurse's aid came out and asked him what he had. He said, "Shingles." So she took down his height, weight, a complete medical history and told him to wait in the examining room. Ten minutes later a nurse came in and asked him what he had. He said, "Shingles." So she gave him a blood test, a blood pressure test, an electrocardiogram, told him to take off all his clothes and wait for the doctor. Fifteen minutes later the doctor came in and asked him what he had. He said, "Shingles." The doctor said, "Where?" He said, "Outside in the truck. Where do you want them?"

   Good morning saywhat

   I find it very offensive that they deem us so ignorant when it comes to seeing things as they are. Do they truly believe that we had no clue to this from the beginning ?

   Of course by now all are aware of Al-Jazeera news agency, the so-called "voice" of al Quida, having it's humble beginnings (original headquarters) on a US Military Base near Doha, Qatar.

   @bobcat. It was the 14 million dollar National Adult Literacy Survey 2002-2006 that deemed US ignorant. Get a clue.

     Why do you act deliberately obtuse when it comes to the intent of one's posts?
     And then tell someone to get a clue, when it's apparent you need one as well?
     Bobcat was talking about Al Quaida; do you yourself have reading comprehension problems?
     Or is a thread that is not of your own choosing what makes you so?

   According to the most comprehensive (and expensive) study ever done on the subject of US adult literacy (mentioned above), 23.7% of US adults are no longer able to derive simple information from written words without pictures to help them understand.

    Don't blame me for whatthat study concluded. (certain citizens among US are ignorant) I've never needed pictures to tell me how to intsall a child safety seat like 23.7% of US do since taking meds with side-effects such as weight gain and brain damage became so popular in America.

      Rubbish.
      There are specific instructions because of the silly litigation cases that people will take advantage of if a company doesn't spell things out.
      It has nothing to do with medicine at all. Get a clue.

    Wondering if that 23.7% of US ignorant ones includes the medicated men who murdered our schoolchildren and moviegoers recently.
