    This one goes to 11.

    You can tell how smart I am because of all the "your mom" jokes I make.

    On A Serious Note, You Can In Fact Make An Accurate Comparison Of Your Intelligence Compared To The Rest Of The World's If You've Taken An IQ Test.


    But IQ Tests Are Total Crap.

    Nevermind. :D

    IQ tests are VERY dependent on the culture for which they are created. there is no standard, worldwide means of accurately measuring intelligence.

    i've been tested by our system here when i was a child, and have a vague idea of what it was (my siblings and i all apparently tested within 5 points of a certain number, thats all i've been told...i dont really know exactly how that number relates to the "average" but dont really think its good to discuss such things openly, for the sake of humility)

    i think i am smarter than i often give myself credit for in real life. probably much smarter than i give myself credit for. i know i'm smarter than most of the people i work and go to school with, and encounter in daily life, and its bothersome to me.

    i don't think i would qualify as a genius, but i dont know what really does qualify and have never cared to look into such useless information.

    there are also plenty of people smarter than me, though they're less common to meet than people who are less intelligent than me.

    there are some people who are way smarter than me as well.

    and i think there are a number of people on this board smarter than me definitely.

    i think its worthless to really compare too much, but sometimes things are hard not to notice.

    it doesnt really "matter" how smart you are. you just gotta make do with what you have, i think.

    You should try some pineapple salsa sometime.

    You just need some pineapple (and juice) and lime, some jalapeno, some onion some garlic, and some cilantro.

    It's pretty perfect.

    sounds good, i will have to try the pineapple salsa.

    my preferred method makes a nice thin soupy salsa, which is what i prefer (like what i find in allegedly authentic mexican restaraunts....not huge chunky bland stuff like in jars)

    i get a whole bunch of green onions (since i don't cook onion i use in salsa, i find green onions have a more delicious taste, not to mention they taste more bright and fresh and have far less bit than red or yellow or white onions...i can even eat them raw by themselves they're so good) i coarsely chop the bunch

    also a couple tomatoes chopped up into medium chunks.

    i wash a whole bunch of cilantro, coarsely chop that

    i'll take a couple big fresh green peppers of one sort or another

    add in fresh ground cumin, just a little bit

    a clove of garlic, pressed

    and i like the juice of a lime in there, too.

    toss the whole lot into a blender and let it go till its the consistancy i want...thin and not chunky, but some texture and recognizable ingredients...not QUITE pureed....

    stuff is pretty basic but pretty delicious. especially after letting it sit for a day or two
