Famous Arguing With An Idiot Quotes

Never argue with an idiot - they'll bring you down to their level then beat you with experience.

When you argue with an idiot people can not tell the two apart.

Always argue with an idiot. You will learn something new from an idiot perspective.

The book of Proverbs in the Bible has lots of words of wisdom about "fools", but are fools and idiots the same thing? When I have more time maybe I can go into more depth on that topic.

"Fools names and fools faces are always seen in public places." How many of you remember that one?

The one that sums up a lot of my life is that "A fool and his (her) money are soon parted." How many of us fall into that category?

Well if you have more arguing with idiot or just idiot in general quotes and want to share them, please do so.

Common Sense is Dead?

This is taken from another recent email...

An Obituary printed in the London Times........ Interesting and sadly
rather true.

Today we mourn the passing of a beloved old friend, Common Sense, who has
been with us for many years. No one knows for sure how old he was, since his
birth records were long ago lost in bureaucratic red tape. He will be
remembered as having cultivated such valuable lessons as: Knowing when
to come in out of the rain; why the early bird gets the worm; Life isn't
always fair; and maybe it was my fault.

Common Sense lived by simple, sound financial policies (don't spend more
than you can earn) and reliable strategies (adults, not children, are in
charge).

His health began to deteriorate rapidly when well-intentioned but
overbearing regulations were set in place. Reports of a 6-year-old boy
charged with sexual harassment for kissing a classmate; teens suspended from
school for using mouthwash after lunch; and a teacher fired for reprimanding
an unruly student, only worsened his condition.

Common Sense lost ground when parents attacked teachers for doing the job
that they themselves had failed to do in disciplining their unruly children.

It declined even further when schools were required to get parental consent
to administer sun lotion or an aspirin to a student; but could not inform
parents when a student became pregnant and wanted to have an abortion.

Common Sense lost the will to live as the churches became businesses; and
criminals received better treatment than their victims.

Common Sense took a beating when you couldn't defend yourself from a
burglar in your own home and the burglar could sue you for assault.

Common Sense finally gave up the will to live, after a woman failed to
realize that a steaming cup of coffee was hot. She spilled a little in her
lap, and was promptly awarded a huge settlement.

Common Sense was preceded in death by his parents Truth and Trust, by his
wife Discretion his daughter, Responsibility, and his son Reason.

He is survived by his 4 stepbrothers;

I Know My Rights.
I Want It Now.
Someone Else Is To Blame.
I'm A Victim.

Not many attended his funeral because so few realized he was gone. If you
still remember him, pass this on. If not, join the majority and do nothing

Are You Scamaphobic?

Ok you heard it here first. My new word of the day is Scamaphobic. Do you send news of every latest scam to everyone on your email list? I tend to get notified of so many of these scams. I read them, too, and then I usually check them out on snopes.com if they seem really scary.

Here is an example of one that I got today.
Have you heard of the 809 Area Code scam? This is from the FCC website in response to the 809 area code scam.

The Scam Works Something Like This

*

You get an e-mail, voicemail, or page telling you to call a phone number with an "809", "284", "876" (or some other three-digit) area code to collect a prize, find out about a sick relative, engage in sex talk, etc.
*

You assume you are making a domestic long distance call - as "809", "284", "876" (and other three-digit area codes involved in this scam) appear to be typical three-digit U.S. area codes.
*

When you dial the "809", "284", "876" (or other three-digit) area code plus the number, however, you're actually connected to a phone number outside the United States, often in Canada or the Caribbean, and charged international call rates. (In this case, "809" goes to the Dominican Republic, "284" goes to the British Virgin Islands, and "876" goes to Jamaica.)
*

You don't find out about the higher international call rates until you receive your phone bill.

Minimize the Risk of This Happening to You

*

Check any area codes before returning calls.
*

If you do not otherwise make international calls, ask your local phone company to block outgoing international calls on your line.

Filing a Complaint with the FCC

If you are billed for a call you made as a result of this scam, first try to resolve the matter with your telephone company. If you are unable to resolve it directly, you can file a complaint with the FCC. There is no charge for filing a complaint. You can file your complaint using an FCC on-line complaint form found at esupport.fcc.gov/complaints.htm. You can also file your complaint with the FCC's Consumer Center by e-mailing fccinfo@fcc.gov; calling 1-888-CALL-FCC (1-888-225-5322) voice or 1-888-TELL-FCC (1-888-835-5322) TTY; faxing 1-866-418-0232; or writing to:

Federal Communications Commission
Consumer & Governmental Affairs Bureau
Consumer Inquiries and Complaints Division
445 12th Street, SW
Washington, D.C. 20554.

That should help.

Please when in doubt of what to do about giving any personal information about yourself over the phone, or answering calls that seem confusing or impossible take steps to check things out before you do something you might regret.

Beware of The Jury Duty Scam!!!

Please never give your personal information out to anyone over the phone.
Ask for their name and phone number so you can call them back. Then call
who they say they are representing and verify what they they called you and
needed information.

Also it is always best to be safe then sorry. This Jury Duty Scam is not new.
Check it out by following the links below.

This has been verified by the FBI (their link is also included below). Please pass this on to everyone in your email address book. It is spreading fast so be prepared should you get this call. Most of us take those summonses for jury duty seriously, but enough people skip out on their civic duty, that a new and ominous kind of fraud has surfaced.

The caller claims to be a jury coordinator. If you protest that you never received a summons for jury duty, the scammer asks you for your Social Security number and date of birth so he or she can verify the information and cancel the arrest warrant. Give out any of this information and bingo; your identity was just stolen.

The fraud has been reported so far in 11 states, including Oklahoma , Illinois , and Colorado . This (swindle) is particularly insidious because they use intimidation over the phone to try to bully people into giving information by pretending they are with the court system. The FBI and the federal court system have issued na tionwide alerts on their web sites, warning consumers about the fraud.

Citizen Link Videos

I have a co-worker who is really into politics. She is a solid Republican since her son is a politician in one of the states and I won't say which one until he runs again. She stays informed and I get all of her emails since I really do not have time to fish this stuff out for myself. She will be my #1 contributor to this blog.
Ok here is one of the videos she sent me and I traced it back to here. I will most likely be publishing more in the future.

This was eye opening to me. What about you?

For having a blog on politics and other topics maybe I need to pay more
attention. However, I do have that certain friend.
