I work at a university. A few times a week, a grad student who also teaches on my floor walks up and down the hallway. For over 4 hours at a time. Back and forth. Back and forth. Every other minute I see his head go past my window in my office. I guess he needs exercise or something. Does anybody else think this is strange?

And don't answer by saying "I don't feel like that! Don't generalize!" If you don't feel like that, then obviously the question doesn't apply to you. Answer if it does.

I've heard that ignorance is bliss. However, I've seen studies that demonstrate the link between lower IQ scores and suicide. What's your take on it? Do some people "think too much" and find life meaningless, or do others seek a quick exit because of ignorance? I'd like to bring up the fact that many amazing artists, musicians, and writers have committed suicide.

I am not all that smart to begin with even though I have several degrees. Mostly AA's AS's
Gettiing degrees is just a matter of staying in school (community college was affordable until they raised the rates to those who had a baccalaureate)

I have done well in school as far as grade go averaging between 2.8 and 3.2 over the course work.

Certainly not great but not miserable either.

It seems as though the more I know on any particular subject or in general the dumber I feel.

I was/am often annoying teachers and others because I would/do ask why or how ,etcetera, all too often.

My reading skills are poor it takes several days to read though a small book and text books often seem impossible to get the information I want.

Why do I feel so stupid?

I am a resident in Baltimore and I am in interested in ways to spur community development that will not displace or further disenfranchise low income communities. I would like to know what mechanisms have been used to make sure that the benefits of community development are received and preserved among people who have had a long term stake in the community, particularly those of underserved communities. What comunity development techniques or strategies have worked best? what other resources should I look into?

I just spent about a week in a mental hospital. When I am getting out of balance, I don't realize I am getting crazy and when I say crazy, I mean really nuts. Fortunately I have some good medications that let me lead a mostly normal life. My question is this. Are there any people with Bipolar disorder out there who are able to lead completely normal lives? I want to be normal so bad it hurts.

1) Home town.- A nice office, moderate salary, but you get to stay close to home, with exensive family benefits.
2) High rise office in NY or LA far from home. High salary but cost of living comes out lower than option 1.
3) Mid sized office in what you consider a boring city. High salary with a medium cost of living. You take home the most money here.
4) Small office in Silicon Valley or eqaul. Access to all of top comapnies in your in your industry. High salary but super high cost of living.
