Sober ...at 8am ......well I was going to ask

I guess you won't be working for Medina

Heisenberg , Shrodinger and Ohm are driving in a car and get pulled over by a police officer.  Heisenberg is driving and the cop asks him "Do you know how fast you were going."  Heisenberg responds that he does not so the officer says "You were doing 55 in a 35."  Heisenberg throws up his hands and shouts "Great, now I'm lost!" 

The cop thinks that's suspicious so he orders him to pop the trunk.  He takes a look and says "Do you know you have a dead cat back here?"  "We do now, asshole!" shouts Shrodinger. 

The cop proceeds to arrest them.  Ohm resists. 

LoL, this cracked me up!

Thanks, I love data like this. Very interesting.

Another point of interest, millennials and Gen X are far more liberal than older generations. As those groups become larger voting blocks it will be interesting to see if that will counter the red shift in some of these states.

We'll see.  As @FearlessF pointed out above, there is a general tendency for people to shift somewhat toward the right as they age but a lot of that has to do with getting married*, buying a house, and having children.  The thing is that all three of those are things that the younger generation is doing later and later in life if at all.  


*The marriage gap is ENORMOUS, much larger than the much more hyped gender gap.  Here is exit poll data from CNN for the 2016 Presidential Election.  

• Women overall voted 54-41 for Clinton, a +13 advantage for Clinton.  Men overall voted 52-41 for Trump, a +11 advantage for Trump.  That is a 24 point swing.  
• Unmarried people voted 55-37 for Clinton, a +18 advantage for Clinton.  Married people voted 52-44 for Trump, a +8 advantage for Trump.  That is a 26 point swing.  

Unfortunately, this data isn't sortable (I'll see if I can find that).  If you have sortable data, you can detect that the Married/Single gap is actually bigger than it even looks above because part of the difference is that single people in general are from demographics more likely to vote D in the first place (ie, young, minority, etc).  That skews the overall comparison because the Single group is younger and browner while the Married group is older and whiter.  When you break it out and look at apples-to-apples it is apparent that the marriage gap is a major driving force in US elections.  Where they do break it out a little bit:

• Married men went for Trump by 29 points, single men went for Clinton by 2 points, a 27 point swing.  
• Married women went for Clinton by 2 points, single women went for Clinton by 31 points, a 29 point swing.  

yup, I always trust experience over certificates

Obviously, some certificates are worth a lot more than others, just like diplomas.  A real estate "license" at least around here isn't worth much.  

Passing the bar is nice, but not necessarily a big deal.  Not passing it is bad.  Passing the Patent Bar is a fairly big deal.  It's much tougher.

The PE thing seems from what I've heard to be one of the loftier things to achieve, aside from "honors" like the Nobel.

It reminds me of used cars that are "Certified Preowned".  Dude, I already know it was "preowned", it has 40,000 miles on the clock.  I don't need that certified.

We are opening up a new plant and we are scraping to find Welding, HVAC, Plumbers, electricians, carpenters, machinists, etc.

You are preaching to the choir. And these are living wage jobs!!


Beats the hell out of trying to force $15/hour to sling burgers.

Ha ha.  This thread took on a life of its own!   Maybe we should change the title to just “REALITY”
