Boy Scouts Now Offering a Merit Badge in Video Games
I must be feeling my age, this week.
Either that, or this place has some extraordinary pollen in the air.
Earlier this week, British astro-physicist Stephen Hawking told us that aliens are definitely out there, but warned that talking to them would not be a good idea.
The 68 year old Hawking says that a visit by extraterrestrials to Planet Earth would be like Christopher Columbus arriving in the America's, "which didn't turn out well for the Native Americans.
" Okay...
I think I get that.
Then yesterday, I discovered that you can now buy porn in Braille.
For those of you living under a rock, that's porn for the blind, which requires that you get all touchy-feely.
I'm sure that it's covered as medical expense, either by the Americans With Disabilities Act, or in some obscure paragraph on page 2477 of the Obamacare stealth bill.
But what got my goat today was finding out that the Boy Scouts are giving out a merit badge in video games.
Maybe this is why kids today are so fat.
Certainly the group who approved this nonsense has too much fat, too, and I'm envisioning both an overly large body and a fat head.
It used to be that you got merit badges for doing something that was relevant, but it looks like more standards have been dumbed down.
I guess I'm just old fashioned, and believe that when you do something you give it your best.
When I was practicing surgery, I don't ever remember an unhappy patient.
I always gave 200 percent and today, I try and do the same thing.
I wouldn't put my name on anything that doesn't meet my old fashioned standards, which means that you can be certain that when I say my Powerhouse Omega Formula is world class, it really is.
I not only monitor my own products, I keep a close eye on other fish oil sellers and so far, none of them have introduced a better product.
The prescription fish oil Lovaza is very good product, but it costs three times as much as mine, retail, and the differences are not very significant.
I'm tired of all this mainstreaming, or what really should be called the dumbing down of the United States.
Our feckless leader actually said, in a speech, that our kids don't have to be number one in the world in math and science.
You'll remember that he was the guy promising the great symbiosis.
It turns out that he is much more sybaritic than symbiotic.
