Look at all the famous(non actors) people who had really shitty parents, then look at all the no name kids from famous people. Maybe fame is a bad indicator, but someone who is successful or intelligent ect, doesn't necessarily pass those qualities on. With the same reasoning, someone who's kind of crappy at things doesn't necesseraly make a kid that will be crappy at things.
Studies confirm that 1/3 of the influence comes from parents. The other third is from peer groups (friends; people you come into contact with), and the other is genes. [source: Malcolm Gladwell - some book on some chapter that I don't feel like finding ATM]
Rest assured, I have good genes too, so I'll be doing the heavy-lifting in guaranteeing good quality offspring. I'm thinking of starting a child-farm in Colorado. I'll homeschool my 10+ kids by having them bust up rocks and grow marijuana while I lounge on the porch, drinking my lemonade.
A vote for me is a vote for civilization!
Sorry, sexiness beats civilization.

Baron Von PWN would probably have won this vote if he weren't in Russia and, therefore, ineligible.

Being there makes you hyper fertile and defeats the voting altogether. How far from Sochi are you? Still waiting for a trip report. Even a brief one.

I would like to take this opportunity to thank everyone who DIDN'T vote for me... because between me and my wife, we've got way too much crazy going on, and that would likely NOT help society (nor my ability to get a good night's sleep)

I'm actually kindof close. Close being a relative term in Russia. Only 500 km away, or a 9 hour drive. In a city called Stavropol.

Take the trip, and record it with your dash cam. Then we at CC can get a POV experience for Sochi, through you.

I'm not watching 9 hours of highway cam showing a bleak Russian countryside in winter unless BvP can guarantee Russian mafia involvement.

Though not winter countryside, some dude pulls out a pistol to make sure he can get into the appropriate lane for merging, around the 23 second mark.

Unfortunately I can't do any of it, as I lack a dash cam, mafia connections, or even a car.

I realize I'm not even a choice, so this test might be my only chance to really prove why.
VACCINATE - YES OR NO? No; not because of autism or anything, I'm just not going to raise anyone who can't evolve faster than the viruses.
PIANO OR LITTLE LEAGUE?NO!
SAILING, SHOOTING, SKIING OR SKATING? Shooting, preferably while doing any of the other three, just in case there are some crazy futuristic emergencies.
SCOUTING OR OUTWARD BOUND? Scouting. The girls get cookie connections.
PRESCHOOL STYLE: MONTESSORI, WALDORF, HIGHSCOPE, FOREST KINDERGARTEN, OR HOME SCHOOL?Home school; I'm not getting any special results if I can't train them while they're little.
HIGH SCHOOL STYLE: BOARDING SCHOOL, MILITARY SCHOOL, PUBLIC SCHOOL, PRIVATE SCHOOL, OR HOME SCHOOL? Home school.
HIGH SCHOOL SPORTS: FOOTBALL, WRESTLING, BASKETBALL, BASEBALL, POLO, OR HOCKEY? Yes.
HIGH SCHOOL ACTIVITIES: DEBATE, BAND, CHOIR, MATH CLUB, NEWSPAPER, OR DRAMA? Debate, and they can overthrow me if I lose since it's homeschooling.
WILD CARD: Crazy Eights
