It's pertaining to something else, but confirms SJP's college history (or lack of same).

Not saying this is necessarily the case, but between 1965, and when I finished my degree in 1990, it could have been said "completed high school" about me as well.

Not that I have anywhere near the credentials listed, but I dropped out of college to take a job -- an opportunity I couldn't afford to pass up at the time. I later finished my degree, but didn't get back to finish those 14 hours for many years because my career took up a lot of time.

My only point is that, whether I agree with these folks or not, it is very misleading to make comments like "completed high school." That doesn't make them dumb.

It doesn't make them smart either. In fact, I don't respect quite a few of the entertainers listed. I just hate this kind of propaganda coming from either side.

DeltAlum, you weren't supposed to read that part, silly. :p Just where the nice snopes lady confirms that they went to college or not.

Oh. You're right. How silly.

My Bad.

But, that's just the point of the email. They are trying to discredit the celebrities and make them seem dumb. :p I tend not to pass on forwards, in order to not accelerate the dumbing down of America.

33, isn't snopes.com the greatest? ;)

So, I think we're agreeing. What this is is another propaganda technique.

And, we don't need anything more to accelerate the dumbing down. That's going just fine without much outside influence.
