Les, I saw that one and wondered how a man endowed as I am could last 5 minutes in Mississippi. <g> I guess all those decades of underspending on public education are starting to pay off.

Down here in Texas, we are proud to quote LBJ when he was first running for President.

"Congressman Johnson, what do you say when I tell you that Texas ranks 49th among all the states in standardized educational scores, 49th in the treatment of the poor, 49th in the welfare of senior citizens, 49th in the equality of career opportunities among the races and 49th in the quality of streets and roads?"

"Suh, I say, thank God for Mississippi." <g>
