GEORGETOWN, Guyana (AP) — Officials say a U.S. team is expected soon in the South American nation of Guyana to probe the crash of a Boeing 737 jetliner that all 163 people aboard survived.
Authorities so far have given little idea about the cause of Saturday's crash. The Caribbean Airlines plane ran off the end of a runway at Guyana's main airport and broke in two. About 30 people had to be treated at a local hospital, including the pilot.
The airline is largely owned by the government of Trinidad and Tobago and its prime minister has visited the crash site. Kamla Persad-Bissessar says she is worried that the accident will hurt tourism to the Caribbean, a region that depends heavily on the industry. [Reply]

Bigots who cannot accept that having been born in the U.S. is not an automatic indication of intellectual superiority over a "ferner" took that simple statement and ran with it. 'tsall.
Frankie, the sooner you realize that people thinking you're an idiot has NOTHING to do with your ethnicity, the better off you'll be. This thread is everything anyone would ever need to come to the conclusion that you're not very smart, much less a genius.
People pile up on idiots here all the time. You're the only one claiming that it's due to you being foreign. [Reply]

Ehh, technically, not really. They are one of a handful of countries with a space program. However small. But still a space program. Read something beside that book of fiction you always clutch.

Project much? After saying this? "Iran is still stuck in the stone age.":-) [Reply]

Wha???? Listo, are you saying Frankie is smart enough to twirl an entire group of CP geniuses here around his finger for 3 days? :-) :-) :-) [Reply]
I have absolutely nothing personal against you, but you remind me of the Black Knight hopping around on one leg saying "Tis but a flesh would". [Reply]

I love you guys' concept of "beat down."
And this "pathetic bastard" has stood up against all the collective idiots attack, thank you very much. [Reply]

Ahhh, the old "I WAS JUST TROLLING YOU GUYS" routine. I remember billay did that a couple of times. I'd say you're both equally smart. [Reply]
Re: IQ. There is quite a difference between sense(read IQ) and common sense. Frankie, the fact that you have carried this torch on for over 500 posts does nothing to prove or disprove your sense, but it says alot about your lack of common sense. [Reply]

Not really surprised I'm smarter than Albert Einstein or Stephen Hawking but Frankie? That that really threw me off. I knew this over sized melon sitting on top my shoulders would get the recognition it truly deserves one day.
Physics Genius Albert Einstein ---> 160
Actor James Woods -----> 180
I did say I question the legitimacy of the IQ concept, didn't I. [Reply]
My bad. I dropped in on the end, damned if I'm reading this whole train wreck. Frankie shows his ass more on the Planet than he does in the shower. [Reply]

Granted, there are funny examples of trolling, I'll never understand a lot of the trolling that goes on around here... what's the end result? Email a buddy a link to this thread and say "hey man, look at this... I was totally acting like a dumbass, and everyone played along, laughing at me and bashing me for days! Oh, I got them!" :-)
If we were actually furiously typing at our keyboards, hanging by every response, I guess that would be somewhat amusing... but, I have a feeling the people who are going back and forth with 159 are doing no such thing. I click on the thread, laugh, maybe reply... :-)
Seems to me "twirled around someone's finger" would mean buying into the 159 IQ or having some "gotcha!" at the end, but nothing has changed.
159 or not, trolling or not, this seems like a monumental waste of time, when no one else is even <50 posts behind...

You wear your moron badge with pride, don't you? I never said an airliner can break in half mid air. Only break UP! Yes I used the word "this" as a general term describing accidents of "this" kind due to possible age and lack of proper maintenance. I just gave you guys some undue credit for having enough intelligence to understand what I meant. And THAT, my idiot friend, was my mistake. [Reply]
What made you think that I was linking the two, you ****ing idiot? Here's an example:
Take two dogs. One is really smart (say a Dobermann) and one is really stupid (some Persian breed). They both possess tremendous fortitude. So, even you can see that fortitude and intelligence are not linked.
So,.... let me get this straight. You just proved my point with your own pseudo-intelligent logic.
Thank you God for idiots. You work in mysterious ways. :-) [Reply]
