Just my .02 While working for a restaurant in college we hired someone who was top of their class, Honor society, and going to Yale in the fall. He was fired because he could not make change in his head and his cash drawer came up short every night. I would vote for "horse sense" any day over IQ and grades.
-- Frank Taylor W. has worked hard to cultivate his image as a good old, plain-speaking boy. How many other men raised in Connecticut, Maine, and Washington DC say "dee-uhnt" as a contraction for "did not"? He had to have taught himself to say it that way to "fit in" as a Texan. How many Yalie's still mispronounce "nuclear," even after they've been poked fun at in book titles for it? According to my poll, 49% of the country thinks he's a complete idiot and a liar, and 49% thinks he's a genius and a hero. I think people in both groups are lacking horse sense.
