Well its about time they tell us - not that anyone couldn't tell you the same thing. Experts, sigh.

[brandonkm → FiReaNG3L]

A lot of times I wonder if the so called experts really are experts.

[FiReaNG3L → brandonkm]

I think they're really good at telling us what happened, but really bad at predicting anything. After all, if they were able to, they'd probably not doing that job, they'd be rich instead.

That doesn't make them experts, that just makes them me.

[helveticaman → brandonkm]

If they were experts, they wouldn't work for the government. They just have time-consuming degrees.
