I'm sure California would have been higher if the poll were conducted bi-lingually and each question was prefaced with, "Dude,". I wouldn't be suprised if the poll was culturally biased against surfers!

:p

Nah we'd be ahead by 18 if it wasn't for :ksu:

Wild.

Bob Dole knows one of the company founders. Maybe he can tell Bob Dole how per-pupil expenditures qualify students as "smart."

Oh yeah, I'm sure the Agriculture School pundits are bringing us up, LMAO. Besides, you have to be more original than simply contradicting what I say.

Probably doesn't hurt that Morgan Quitno Press is a Kansas company, either. :)

Bob Dole, I think you might be the only smart Texan I've ever seen. Must feel nice. You guys still should be in the bottom 5, no offense.

Chieficus 10-19-2004 05:05 PM

Okay...any list that has West Virginia ranked that high has gotta be flawed...

(insert the theme from Deliverance here...)

That's probably because Bob Dole isn't really a Texan, but a transplant from Masach...er, Massachoo...er, Massachuz...er, somewhere else.

Considering we are 51st in teacher pay, and we have one of the lowest per cent of college degreed citizens in the country (bottom ten), I'd say 22nd is respectable.

Nice bang for the buck, I guess. :hmmm:
