    Smart people live in Seattle

    in Spray

    Posted

    NEW YORK (CNNMoney.com) -- The smartest city in the United States is Seattle - 52.7 percent of its residents age 25 or older have completed a bachelor's degree or higher.

     

    The education rankings were released this month by the U.S. Census Bureau.

     

    The brainiest cities in the United States

    Top 25 cities with more than 250,000 population, ranked by percentage of bachelor's degrees among residents 25 and older

     

    Seattle's also been ranked as the most literate city in the United States by Central Connecticut State University, beating out Minneapolis, Washington and Atlanta. That rating was based on such things as the number of booksellers, libraries and newspaper circulation - as well as educational attainment.

     

    Many brainy people have flocked to the Seattle area to work in what's called the "knowledge economy."

     

    Companies headquartered there and in surrounding towns, including Microsoft, Amazon, Cray, Washington Mutual and Costco, all use heavy doses of information technology. Even another of the area's biggest employers, old-line Boeing, is also a glutton for technological solutions.

     

    Seattle also has more than its share of residents with advanced degrees: 20.5 percent. Only Washington, D.C., has more holders of advanced degrees. Many there work for the federal government, as well as for the think tanks and other nongovernmental organizations that form the heart of capital working culture.

    Isolated alpine lakes hike

    I know it's asking a lot, but does anybody have a recommendation for a moderately easy hike in the alpine lakes area that won't be infested by hordes of humans? Lake would be cool, but anything is good as long as it isn't packed like the standard rachel lake, snow lake, etc. hikes.

    I haven't had a hard time getting my solider to 'snap to attention' though I've been told if I am sloppy drunk and or passed out my solider can't hear 'reveille playing'.

     

    I'm not sure if it counts as ED but I have had a hard time finishing if I hold it too long or if it is an 'amphibious assault'... hot tub, bath tub

    Most stick shifts are driven by older guys with Freudian issues boxing_smiley.gif and the 'fuel economy' myth is just there for rationalization of their libidinous impulses.

     

    Too bad all the cash you save at the pump just goes into porn since the ladies won't date a guy who drives an automatic wagon. pitty.gif

     

    Drive a stick shift Dru and maybe you'll meet someone who will shift your stick hahaha.gif

     

    FYI Freudian issues = sex appeal
