... in an assessment by the Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development, 15-year-olds in the U.S. placed 25th out of 30 countries in math performance and 21st in science performance.
Ask those same students about the winners of the last 5 american idols seasons. They'll know all 5.
No matter how much they spend on their education, they don't see a direct correlation between being good at math and success in life. They see success in life is singing, acting, having a porn video or being a nfl qb.
And yet the system works. They will have a very good life by international standards.

Yup, I've dislocated my shoulder a fair few times + i may or may not have been known to experiment in my youth so have had a fair bit of experience with nitrous.
The first few times you take it its really great; a good euphoric experience, but after the first few times you tend to get "experienced" with its effects and it gets exponentially more irritating and less euphoric.

That's why you have to take it while you are watching The Fifth Element... That movie is like a giant party all the way through!
