2 TOUGH QUESTIONS

Question 1:
If you knew a woman who was pregnant, who had 8 kids already, three who were deaf, two who were blind, one mentally retarded, and she had syphilis, would you recommend that she have an abortion?

Read the next question before looking at the response for this one.

Question 2:
It is time to elect a new world leader, and only your vote counts. Here are the facts about the three candidates.

Candidate A.
Associates with crooked politicians, and consults with astrologist. He's had two mistresses. He also chain smokes and drinks 8 to 10 martinis a day.


Candidate B.
He was kicked out of office twice, sleeps until noon, used opium in college and drinks a quart of whiskey every evening.


Candidate C.
He is a decorated war hero. He's a vegetarian, doesn't smoke, drinks an occasional beer and never cheated on his wife.


Which of these candidates would be your choice? Take your time and select your choice, then continue
-------------------------------------------------------------



















Candidate A is Franklin D. Roosevelt.
Candidate B is Winston Churchill.
Candidate C is Adolph Hitler.


And, by the way, on your answer to the abortion question: If you said YES, you just killed Beethoven.

Pretty interesting isn't it? Makes a person think before judging someone.
Wait till you see the end of this note! Keep reading...

Never be afraid to try something new.
Remember: Amateurs...built the ark.
Professionals...built the Titanic

And Finally, can you imagine working for a company that has a little more than 500 employees and has the following statistics:
* 29 have been accused of spousal abuse
* 7 have been arrested for fraud
* 19 have been accused of writing bad checks
* 117 have directly or indirectly bankrupted at least 2 businesses
* 3 have done time for assault
* 71 cannot get a credit card due to bad credit
* 14 have been arrested on drug-related charges
* 8 have been arrested for shoplifting
* 21 are currently defendants in lawsuits
* 84 have been arrested for drunk driving in the last year...
Can you guess which organization this is?


Give up yet?
It's the 535 members of the United States Congress. The same group
that crank out hundreds of new laws each year designed to keep the rest of us in line.

I have not read the response, so here goes

The three options are all US presidents

I'm gonna assume that the first two were among the 10 greatest considered presidents of all time, while the third is Nixon or some president who is ill-considered.

How'd I do?

not exactly, but you got the gist of it.

"Also, Beethoven was not born to a woman who "had 8 kids already." Although his mother, Maria Magdalena Laym (nee Kewerich) gave birth a total of eight times during her lifetime, Ludwig was only her third child."

HAH

Look, just because of beethoven doesnt mean its very ill considered to keep having children when there is a massive % chance of being seriously disabled in some respect.

(Alert poker analogy: just because calling a gutshot with 2:1 odds works once doesnt mean its a good idea)

My spam filter makes sure crap like this doesn't go to my email inbox. I'd appreciate it if you would leave the chain-letters out of 2+2 as well.

sorry, I had a lapse in judgment.

I hardly ever post this kind of stuff, I was just bored.

Unfortunately, I don't have any homemade porn to post to make up for it.

Yeah, I had another one from TBL since you complained, but it was tough to see the face. I finally thought for a moment and realized you can edit/rehost. I've been on this board for over a year and this just occured to me.

One of those humbling moments.

Here's where it happened. (http://forumserver.twoplustwo.com/showflat.php?Cat=&Board=exchange&Number=2560197&Fo rum=f20&Words=mussina&Searchpage=0&Limit=25&Main=2 560197&Search=true&where=sub&Name=&daterange=1&new erval=1&newertype=w&olderval=&oldertype=&bodyprev= #Post2560197)
