1. In your state/country is there a required registry for sex offenders? Do you think there should be, and why, or why not?
In California there is; you can get it on a CD-ROM since it's not on the web. More info is located here. In Tennessee, not only do they have everything online, they include pictures and location. You can search them out and start egging their house if you wanted to.
But unless they can't tell right from wrong (in that case, they should be in some mental institution), yes, tabs should be kept on these criminals. In fact, tabs should be kept on all criminals, not just sex offenders. They've proven once that they can't live with society and with that, they've forsaken their right to live relatively anonymously.
2. What did you want to be when you were a little kid? Did you become your initial occupational choice?
In first grade, the teacher made us do drawings of what we wanted to be when we grew up. At the time, I was surprised because I had not thought about it before. So after a little haggling with myself, I decided to draw myself as a teacher. After all, teachers did little each day besides standing up at the blackboard and handing out worksheets.
Later, that idea became replaced with the notion that I could be some sort of scientist. Why? Because the teachers never had the answers for everything. They never introduced me to anything new or exciting. Or maybe I just got lucky and was assigned to teachers who were horrible at explaining things so they gave students busy work. I had to go find what I wanted to know by myself.
3. If you haven't already done so take this test, or if you have provide a link to your prior earth shattering results.
I'm pretty sure I took this one before, but I'm too lazy to hunt up the link in my archives.
Newbie (40%) You've started to learn that there is more to the internet than AOL. You've recovered from that email virus that wiped your hard drive and are thinking of getting DSL. You still tend to forward too many jokes and inspirational thoughts via email to your entire address book.
I'm slightly offended that this quiz thinks I'm a newbie. I thought I would score higher. Oh well.
