You don't have a clue as to what I know, do you? But you'll act like a
jackass
thinking that you do.


Your displays of ignorance are endemic to these boards. Just take the recent
suggestion that Canada is fascist as an example of a totally absurd, totally
off the track comment, and you have a small idea of how ignorant you are.
You seem to know many facts, but are totally unable to assemble them into
reasonable ideas.


Steve just likes to taunt the Trolls. Calling Canada a fascist state in
the same light as the Trolls calling people in the Bush administration a
Nazi. Get real.

Really? I have a degree in Business Administration (BBA), majoring in
finance.

I find that tough to immagine. Of course the old "half the (fill in
profession) finished in the bottom half of their class" sure fits.

How was that at rambling with vague references to reality, 'tard boy?

Low on the credibility scale. And nearly everyone realizes a business
degree
that is not an MBA is pretty worthless.


Well, it sure beats having to write a dissertation on the reasons why you
don't
have a degree!


The only reason I have no degree is that I was approached by a headhunter
before graduation with a unique opportunity. Since going to college was a
lark, I skipped out. I was, in case you did not notice, a radio station
owner at age 17. Unlike many, I went to college to get exposure to
disciplines not normally taught in biz school or broadcast school... things
like cultural anthropology, sociology, music, etc.


The knowledge is the important thing. The diploma is just a piece of
paper.

Does the word puffery mean anything to you?


Yes, and it has a precise definition. Puffery involves making broad,
generalizing and unsustainable statements about a product or service in
advertising. A good example would be "the richest taste." Since "rich taste"
is indefinable, but still a positive, this is puffery.

Things that can be defined, proven or quantified are not, generally, the
subject of puffery.

As usual, your tangential approach, based on casting doubt by changing the
argument, is not working.

Other than an occasional "Nibi Nibi Islands ATC active this morning on 6069"
you ware a waste of bandwidth.

I never said that, 'tard boy... get your story straight!

Bottom line in this little arguement is... I graduated, and you didn't. Then you
try to make light of that. Oh well, make your excuses... I've probably heard
them all.

Sorry, the reference to the notorious 60's hoax was lost on you. You are not
even a very knowledgable DXer.

No, the point is that I do not need a degree, did not need one and was
studying for personal satisfaction. Someone who already has a career does
not benefit from an undergraduate degree if they are already in a top
management position. As Telamon (with whom I sometimes disagree) stated, it
is just a piece of paper. And, to me, irrelevant... or I would have done a
couple of night classes and gotten the degree.

I've got "the Ace(hole)" killfiled, so you won't see any replies to that waste
of a human brain from me. But this thread, considering that it raises the
question as to whether free radio will be hard to find in the new United States,
is (or was) on-topic for alt.radio.broadcasting, amazingly. It's actually
rather intriguing that, in large measure, this is actually happening, with the
disconnect between the U-S's implementation of IBOC and the Canadian's selection
of Eureka, that access to unfiltered news sources will diminish for U-S
residents, even those situated close to the Canadian border. If I were a
paranoid, I'd be getting the hell out of the U-S. (Wait...I *am* getting the
hell out of the U-S.)

Your turn. Name me one single benefit that having a degree would have given
me. Otherwise, move on to calling Canadians 'tards like you usually do.
