Also, to get a little perspective I looked up the size of the country.  I was surprised to discover that Pakistan is basically 4 times the size of Texas.

Last week one of DC United's supporter groups was selling t-shirts that say "We Mess with Texas" in United colors (black & white). Making these in burgundy and gold would a a license to print money. Not to mention a lawsuit from Dan Snyder.

I'm just wondering, is this a more or less normal occurrence in Pakistan or is this a freak flood?

Isn't Pakistan always having some kind of natural disaster or another? I think it was just a really bad spot to locate a country.

That would be Turkey.  Also Iran sometimes.  Turkey should be a black hole with all the social and tectonic forces acting on it.

Based on any so-called objective measure you'd care to name, I both humbly and sincerely doubt that.

Okay... we doing this then.  I guess it depends on how we define being smart.

One test we could do is we each register a new account on assetbar, and see who can get the most chubbies.  First one to 10 comments with 10 chubbies wins.  Or something like that.

Alternatively, maybe an online IQ test. 

Alternatively, we could compare c*ck sizes.

Dude, I don't know if you know who you're dealing with. AW was on Jeopardy!, and brought the Win on Day 1.

That's pretty much all you need to know. Winning on Jeopardy! == smarter than everyone else here (except maybe Wombat, who has a PhD).

Jeopardy! is all rigged.  They feed them the answers through brain implants.  Sometimes when they get the camera angle wrong you can see the shadow of the wires coming out the back of their heads.  At least that was in the beginning I'm sure it's wireless nowadays.
