First: Who but a gullible person would trust any ‘study’ or ‘survey’ trying to correlate politics with paper credentials?
Second: One of the key ongoing political scandals is the fraud of pretending that paper credentials are necessarily education, adn that scholarly publications are necessarily science.
“Look Skippy, don’t tease the Dragon, just drop the coffee off and leave” Boss ordered. “Oh, c’mon boss why not?” Skippy dejectedly asked. “Because Dragons are grumpy without their coffee and you are crunchy and taste good with ketchup” the Boss warned… “You sure about that?” Skippy asked. “Just delivered a case of ketchup to the dragon’s cave last week” the Boss warned.
Every time I hear something about that show, I think, “Look, I’m all for mocking NuTrek, but isn’t that going a bit far, even for parody.” And then it turns out that no, that’s not mocking, it’s not parody, it’s just a literal description of the next episode.

I might very well be worse than Hitler in this regard, but I feel like I can at least do consistent shadows. I keep looking at that thing and saying, “Where’s the light, and what the heck is casting that shadow across the building?”
Why are the Marines a department of the Navy? Because someone has to keep watch over what Sailors are doing and the Army didn’t want to do it and there was no Air Force at the time, so like everything else it got dumped on the Marines.
Besides you can’t let Sailors run amuck all over the world they just scare the hell out of people. You thought herding cats was hard, try controlling a couple hundred drunken sailors on liberty. There is a reason the ramps leading from a ship are called the Gangway. Trust me on this…
The reason they made Marines is to keep as many Sailors on the ship possible, for as long as possible. You’ll notice they train Marines in swamps with alligators to give them a rough idea of what they will be facing when dealing with Sailors…

Don’t stores now deliver, or do they reject going to dragon’s caves because too many delivery people have been eaten?
