15:28.24mallumthere was a program on tv last night about texas virgins
15:28.45sorphinmallum: there are virgins in TX?
15:28.46sorphinamazing
15:29.33jnorkSurely even Texans aren't born deflowered.
15:29.42sorphinjnork: i dunno
15:30.01jnork<mallum> there was a program on tv last night about texas virgins <== both of them!
15:30.08mallumsorphin: yeah apparently they like to take this pledge of selebacy or summin and are given no sex education what so ever
15:30.17mallumsorphin: geroge w's idea apparently
15:30.34mallumsorphin: now TX has highest raid of unwanted teenage pregnancies
15:30.42jnorkYeah, no shit.
15:31.01jnorkAnd the US has the highest rate in the industrialized world. Pretty much the same reason.
15:31.20jnorkHave we learned anything? No. "If that doesn't work, try more of the same."
15:31.58jnorkComplete fucking morons.
15:32.09mallum:/.
15:33.44jnorkSorry, this whole "protect our children by not teaching them anything about the real world" philosophy -- if you want to dignify it with that term -- is doing far more damage to our society than porn ever could.
15:33.55jnorkBut guess who gets the blame?
15:36.03jnorkMy kids... ok, well, Mariel doesn't really count. My daughter knows pretty much all an 11 year old is likely to understand about sex and reproduction, because we've told her frankly and without inhibitions. Well, not many, anyway. Certainly less than the average American.
15:37.13jnorkWe let her watch movies with swear words. She doesn't get into trouble at school using them. Why? Because I sat down and explained what they are, why people use them, and more or less why they're not accepted in contexts she's likely to find herself in.
15:37.24jnorkNot ONCE did I threaten her with punishment for using them.
15:38.31jnorkShe won't need me to protect her, because she'll have her own defenses. Which she has because she's been educated, not hidden away.
15:39.21juliare's
15:40.28sorphinjnork: huh?
15:41.27jnorkSorry, just off on an anti-right-wing rant. Ignore me.
15:41.31jnorkre julia.
15:43.38jnorkFunny how being unemployed makes it harder for me to schedule around being a juror.

20:48.17prpplaguesorphin: i'm with you on those natural keyboards
20:48.23jnorkI learned to touch-type in 9th grade, which at the time and place was considered Jr. High School.
20:48.49CosmicPenguinI learned in 6th, 7th, 8th, and 9th because they didn't have anywhere else to put me
20:49.01CosmicPenguinI was up to 83 WPM as a freshman
20:49.21jnorkUnfortunately I also learned to use IBM keypunches, and then later some computer keyboards that only had one ctrl key, so I've sorta unlearned a lot.
20:49.43jnorkI can still do it, but I've gotten lazy.
20:49.56jnorkSo I don't like the natural keyboards. :)
20:50.54TomW_I use the natural keyboard, I find it easier to use.
20:51.12jnorkI prefer unnatural keyboards!
20:51.23jnorkIn fact, I have one that's downright evil! MWAH HAH HAH HAH!
20:51.51TomW_it is a MicroSoft Natural Keyboard, heh, works good on the linux box.
20:52.03jnorkThis one is a black IBM keyboard.
20:52.09jnorkIf that's not evil, I don't know what is.
20:52.30TomW_ooo! doesn't show the dirty keys as well, eh?
20:52.35jnorkheh
20:53.00TomW_mine's white, I have to keep scraping the cigar scum off the keys.
20:53.13jnorkYou should see this keyboard.
20:53.24jnorkSo should I. Someday I'll clean it so I can see it.
20:53.40TomW_black keys with yellowed legends, which used to be white?
20:53.41jnorkOnly problem is, the most-used keys have the letters worn off.
20:53.55jnorkSorry, "this" keyboard isn't my evil IBM one.
20:54.31TomW_heh, so is mine, I use vi and the j, k keys have no legends on them.
20:54.34jnorkI too have a whitish keyboard that's covered with scum.
