[SOC] Peas

[Thomas Lepley]

Blondism is worse than racism. I'm blond, but I'm not stupid. My highschool GPA is 3.88 unweighted and on a 4.0 scale, I got 2090 out of 2400 on the SAT, and after 22 credits, my  college GPA 4.0. But, I didn't die my hair. God made me blond. Most of the Blonds who are really dumb are the ones who die their hair - blond from a bottle. If it is that group that you are looking to target, then fire away.

The past week has been really interest. I think a number of SOC members 
have contracted CABIN FEVER, as those of us up here in the north land, 
Minnesota call. It is only three more months to spring here. Keep it up 
guys.  It is good to read top quality intellectual postings again. It 
appears that SOC postings are returning to the high standards we had 
come to expect over the years. Any body got any new Blond Jokes.
