Joe the Plumber isn't even a plumber! He's a Republican Plant! To counteract the United Association of Plumbers and Pipefitters endorsement of Obama! Or something! Who Cares!
What the mainstream liberal media elects don't understand is that as long as Joe has seen pipes from his house, he's qualified to be a plumber, even if he hasn't been "licensed" by the over-regulated and intrusive nanny state.
So I guess I'm qualified to be both an astrophysicist and an engineer, since I work with them and have seen proposals dealing with the stuff they work on. And I've been in the presence of models of space-faring vehicles. Oh, and I know basic math, and physicists and engineers know basic math, ergo I'm qualified to be both a physicist and engineer.
I'm gonna tell my boss I need more money to reflect my new-found importance.
Carol Elaine, I recommend that you immediately start using the honorific "Dr.," and use your new-found qualifications to give those idjits over at CERN the what-for. You're clearly more qualified than them, and they've obviously overlooked the safety concerns that you should be able to spot right away.
Hang on--are we sure Dr. Carol Elaine is fully qualified? Dr. Carol--do you play chess? If the answer is yes, please file your motion for a restraining order against CERN ASAP before they destroy the world with their electrical fault!
But seriously: the significance of Joe's, um, "status" doesn't really have anything to do with Joe. It has to do with the fact that it appears McCain's prep team vetted Joe about as well as they vetted Governor Palin.
Not that this is news or anything. But it is kinda funny.
Eric, I play both chess and checkers and have been known to dabble in backgammon. In addition, one of my bosses (an astrophysicist) actually saw the LHC with his own eyes several months before it went online and I've seen him with my own eyes, therefore my credentials for advising CERN are impeccable. My complaint shall be filed with CERN forthwith.

If Michelle kicks ass, shouldn't she be Head Procologist?
*rimshot* Thank you folks, I'll be here all week! Tip your waitress and don't try the veal!
As for my own standardized test scores, rest assured that they were high enough to enable me to graduate from any high school in the country. There is certainly no need for me to prove this, as my credentials have been widely documented by myself in previous comments, which should be sufficient for anyone.
I am a Hot Chick living in Castle Rock, CO with my fabulous family. We have a rescue dog named "Jackson," and she's a Basenji/Shepherd mix. She's something of a head case, but we love her. I'm a U.S. Navy vet, and I currently work as an Enterprise Solutions Architect, specializing in VoIP and multimedia contact center design. I care about social justice, libraries, science, the U.S. Constitution and the military. I'm a tax and spend liberal in a largely red county, but I try not to be stabby about it. I knit for charity. Stupidity, cupidity and wanton assholery piss me off, and I'm more than a little soft when it comes to dogs and those who serve others. I blog about whatever I feel like. I use foul language, so if that sort of thing offends you, feel free to fuck off now - if I'm unwilling to clean up my language for my fabulous Great Auntie Margie, I'm unlikely to do so for you. Newcomers are welcome here, especially those who disagree with me, but trolling and spamming will be met with the Shovel of Doom™.

(I meant "elites," but the noun "elects" works just as well.)
Eric, you are an evil, evil man, and you make me laugh and laugh.
And I now declare myself to be a qualified OB/GYN, because I went to see one yesterday.
It just shows you the shit hole that the republicans are willing to wallow in!

Get cracking, girl!

Eric, hence the "Who Cares" portion of today's show.

I thought "Kupwuriso" was a volcanic stage or someplace in Micronesia.
Clearly I'm mistaken, since Carol Elaine's abilities so far outstrip my own.
All hail Carol Elaine, Kupwuriso!
But can she pass standardized tests??!?! That part is absolutely crucial.
Carol Elaine, I'm afraid we'll need your SAT and ACT scores to confirm your new position as our new Science Overlord. Anything from the '80's will do.
Hey! I kick *ass* on standardized tests!
What position do I get?
Um, resident xenobiologist?
If Michelle kicks ass, shouldn't she be Head Procologist?

Does that mean I can dissect Walter?
Yes, Michelle, you can. With a sharp stick.
Ooh! I wonder what kind of strange and alien organs I'll find?
(runs off to find a sharp stick)
(runs back)
If they have a hard outer carapace I think I might need something sharper than a stick.
Do you think Jim will mind if I borrow some of his tools?
