I don't have the particular skills, drill press and other tools needed

impressed with me, because I tutored his kid for three months for free
and helped the kid go from the equivalent of a C- in English to a
solid B and to raise his score more than 100 points on the SAT Reading
Test and Writing and Language Test. I also helped him start to lose
his southern redneck speaking patois and use more standard English.
Hopefully, heÂ* will continueÂ* developing hisÂ* skills and put them to
goodÂ* use in college.


Let's see.Â* Earlier you told us that some landscaping guyÂ* you hired
spontaneously and unilaterally just "happened" to proudly show
you his naturalization papers.Â*Â* Funny.Â* Never heard of a naturalized
citizen carrying their papers around showing them to everyone without
being asked.

Now you tell us you're a modern day Professor Henry Higgins transforming
a male version of Eliza Doolittle in culture, speech and the arts.Â* To
think ... born the son of a gunsmith of all things.

Amazing.

No. Try reading for content. When I first met the guy, he showed me
his green card. We talked over the years about his working and
waiting for the opportunity to become a citizen. When that happened, he
proudly showed me the certificate he got.

The kid in question wants to go to a decent college. That isn't going
to happen without a decent SAT score and a good personal interview.
Language skills help with the latter.

Do gunsmiths make good money? Now-a-days the ability to pay the tuition
is more important than SAT scores or your diction.

He's retired from the military. Gunsmithing is a part-time thing with him.

Yawn. I'd rather watch grass grow.

"Well, that's about the level of your competence...watching grass
grow...and you probably need someone to explain it to you."

SNERK!
I wholeheartedly and unequivocally agree with this post!

Of course you do. You have no idea what your only friend Fat Harry is
typing about but you, of course, agree with his lame rebuttal to an
honest response.

It would take a moron to fully appreciate the ranting and ravings
of the fat fool of Rosedale Lane.

And there you have it...

You must hate that he's drawing a government pension even though you
don't pay taxes to contribute to it.

I’m also reminded of a a kid named little Jack Horner when I hear of the continual great feats of accomplishments by some.
