Fiddleaway had already made it pretty clear (twice) that
his little proposition was a joke...

Thanks for clarifying ... I had hoped to just let the thing die, but it
got
a life of it's own.

Actually, my original quip was a weak attempt to comment on the "clarity"
of The Clause claimed by rw.

My experience in hearing people talk about the Constitution is that one
man's clarity is another's fuzzy logic.

For me, going from "the Congress shall make no law" to "a public school
teacher shall not lead student volunteers in prayer during classtime" is a
big step; not a simple application of clarity


Ah! I see. NEITHER of you had any idea of what either was saying. Oh,
goody! These are my favorites. I'll just sit back and watch........for a
while.......maybe. :)

You'll read ever word until, admit it. They'll eventually figure out
the miscommunication, but I've got a shiny nickel that you never will.

Posts that people want to respond to.

An opportunity for those who wish to ignore me.

And for the record - my first offering, while some may judge it to be a bag
of **** - was in no way intended to be a flame. If that's the way it came
off, I apologize.

i do not intend to denigrate you for not having to make a choice. the study
of law, in some of its specialties, would indeed be a fascinating
undertaking, if one had the time and resources to support the endeavor,
while making one's way in the world through other means.

at any rate, i can assure you that the practice is far more instructive
than the study.

Ah, but here's the thing (and it's a secret, so don't tell anyone): I
have to make a living, too...well, I don't HAVE to, but I've grown
accustomed to certain niceties, such as food, clothing, and shelter (I
tried paying the staff at good ol' Beefeater Hall with some of those
government-issue food stamps, but they threatened to quit unless I
started back with the $1.25 an hour thing, and so, it was back to
beating more production out of the serfs). I was expected to (but
granted, didn't "have to") work from a young age, but since having been
graduated, I had the aforementioned "choice," food, etc. And as an
aside, I've increased "family wherewithal" rather than drawn from it.
Yes, I have become temporary caretaker-in-trust for quite a few nice
material possessions, but as I'm sure you know, such things tend to
create expenses rather than income, and at best, add nothing to my
income.

the study of law, in some of its specialties, would indeed be a fascinating
undertaking, if one had the time and resources to support the endeavor,
while making one's way in the world through other means.

And that's exactly what I've done. The fact that I chose to study what
interests me rather than to practice in a system which would require me,
by virtue of honorable professional ethics, do what I would often find
at odds with my personal beliefs, should not shock someone who feels
they had little or no choice but to practice in that system.

at any rate, i can assure you that the practice is far more instructive
than the study.

I disagree, and here's why: the practice of the thing forces you in
large part to conform to, and at least for many, become jaded by, the
system as it is, rather than as it should be. If I may ask, how do you
_really_ feel about CE?

Compared to your contributions I'd say he's contributed infinitely more.

Leaving one to suppose that infinity is pretty diminutive in your
neighborhood.

Hell even I've contributed more than you have.

And every bit of it solid gold.
