My boyfriend Rupert once told me that he used to have the serious hots for Paula Zahn. Because she's smart and smart chicks are sexy. I pointed out to him that she's said some really stupid things in the past, none of which of course I could list because my brain is too tiny to hold that kind of information, and he said it didn't matter; she is still hot and smart.
Poor Rupert. I've tricked him into thinking I'm smart, too, because I drop big words all the time. What he doesn't realize is that I'm like an idiot savant - I have that one talent but otherwise, I'm pretty much a dunce. Which he surely notices every time we discuss anything involving numbers (he's an engineer), but see I'm sneaky, and whenever those conversations come up, I start licking his neck or something to distract him from my intellectual feebleness. It works.
Take that, Zahn!

Ahem...isn't "I" supposed to be "i" and "are" spelled "r"? As in:
i r smrt
See? You're too smart to do it right. ;)
(Really, I have no idea why it amused me just now to correct your proper grammar and spelling for loldog-speak. I must've killed more brain cells than I thought watching that "debate" the other night.)

I can see how you trick him into thinking you're smart, but how do you hide that bad attitude of yours?
Oh, and you're funny looking too.
Your loving brother,

Your deprecating humor is touching Rachel, but I work with guys every day who couldn't spell IQ if you spotted them a letter. I've seen stupid close up and I don't think you got it. Well, with the exception of those Beatle cracks.

Agreed about the Beatle cracks. :-P Don't worry, you'll love the Beatles after you hear Frank do Beatles karaoke.
Other than that, I think u r smrt 2.

I always liked Zahn. She could play cello - not too common a talent among your news drones - and she had legs to die for.
Still, this is no basis for a relationship. And anyway, someone who argues for the hotness of smart chicks is never going to be interested in dullards. (And true dullards can't fake smart: cf. Simpson, Jessica.)

Hm. I'll need to keep that in mind...continue to challenge women until they can't answer something and they lick my neck.
Thanks Rachel!

If that neck licking thing is true of more women than just you, it's a wonder Stephen Hawking ever gets any work done. :o)

Rachel,
Rupert is so right. Women who are both hot and smart are the bomb! For example, I have not read your blog, watched TV, slept or done anything other than work and ...well you know, for the last 2 weeks.
What does this have to do with the subject at hand you might ask? Well, I have a new girlfriend who is so totally cool, and whom I have connected with on so many levels that we are absorbed with each other. A LOT of it has to do with the fact that she is highly intelligent and not afraid to use it. If only I had recognized this as an important factor, I could have skipped all those 15 to 20 years younger than me "bimboes with no brains" I have put up with for the last few years.
As an aside, she was quite stunned to find out that cops can be quite intelligent too, not just gun-totin' doofuses out to ruin everybody elses day.
Ooops got to go, apparently more women than you know about the neck licking thing, and that it can also be used to get one's attention, and make you abandon even trying to use a computer :-P
