Higher Is Not Necessarily Up There

 

Universities of Higher Education are having a hard time of late. Fella’s opinion is that in most cases they have deserved the hard times that they have been having, however, that is not the purpose of this Blog Posting.

************

Fella usually deals in specifics and today will prove to be no exception to that usual dealing position of mine.

Any University of Higher Education that can’t handle Basic Arithmetic ought not be referred to as “higher”. It is insulting to anyone who has gone past the fifth grade to treat these institutions as if they were smart.

Some of My Dear Readers know that I can see in my mind’s eye (whatever that is) the facial expressions on the faces of those who are reading my Blog. At this moment I can see there are 8 of you who think I do not know what the heck of which I speak.

I have been publishing this Blog since right after the turn of the century and I must say I am a bit taken aback that there are so many who doubt me. Eight used to be Enough back in the early days of television but, to Fella’s way of thinking, 8 is a lot when it comes to readers of my Blog doubting me. After all, have I not demonstrated over and over year after year that I am a Smart Fella?

Ø Do you agree that if you count on all 10 fingers and thumbs you get to the number 10?

Ø How many football teams are there in the Big 10 Football Conference?

Ø Every one of My Dear Readers knows the answer because the football fans of you know because you are football fans and the non-football fans of you know because you just Googled It.

There Are 14 Football Teams In The Big Ten!

Above I accused these Universities of having a lack of understanding of Arithmetic, however, that is not right, is it? This is not Arithmetic. This is a lack of understanding of Basic Numbers. Sister Mary Berchman would have taken her Hand Whacking Ruler to the lot of them for sure!

Would I kid u?

Why Do People Do That?

The Internet Is Wonderful! It will explain everything to you. It will allow you to learn about whatever you want to learn about whenever you are ready to lean about it.

For example: If you are like me, I’m sure you have a strong desire to be like me, you have often wondered about this one...Why Do People Get Tattooed? Thanks to me, with the help of the Internet, you are about to find out Why People Get Tattooed...

People get tattoos for various reasons, such as for artistic, cosmetic, sentimental, religious or spiritual reasons, for family and to symbolize their belonging to or identification with particular groups, including criminal gangs or a particular ethnic group or law-abiding subculture. Tattoos can also be for attention, self-expression, artistic freedom, rebellion, a visual display of a personal narrative, reminders of spiritual/cultural traditions, sexual motivation, addiction, identification with a group or even drunken impulsiveness.

Have you ever seen a finer example of a waste of words? You can take your pick of any part of this explanation and think to yourself any one or all of these reasons to ignore what you just read and move onto some other endeavor where your time will be better spent...

Ø Who gives a chit!
i.e.: artistic freedom or identification with a particular ethnic group or rebellion.

Ø Huh?
i.e.: a visual display of a personal narrative or self-expression or cosmetic reasons.

Ø That’s stupid!
i.e.: for sentimental reasons or addiction or sexual motivation.

When I saw the last one Even Drunken Impulsiveness it made me harken back to my youth (are you tired of hearing about my youth?) ...

When we were young and we saw a man (in those days it was always a man) with a tattoo it mean 2 things...

Ø He used to be in the Navy.

Ø One night, while in the Navy, he got drunk.

Would I kid u?

Lagniappe: There was a time, after people looked at their tattooed selves and started to cry, I thought there was a fortune to be made in Tattoo Removal Parlors. As of now, I’m not so sure that will ever happen.
