He should be used to it. Being in front of a room of people pointing at a board that no one has a clue about.
Only this time teenagers can rip him a new one. |

a little off topic, but powell had a bachelors in geology...how random is that? |
lots of army ppl study that.
but to stay on topic, colin powell was not on the same frequency with bush and bush knows that if colin ran for president, colin wouldve probably kicked his ass. Though i personally feel that colin had a straighter head than bush, its no good to have staff members that feel differently about certain issues. |

yeah. they study geology and when they realize there's 2 geology jobs in the whole USofA they turn to the Army.
my buddy graduated with an undergrad geology degree. lucky for him, he's been at a major grocery food chain since he was 16 and made his way up the ranks to being 3rd in charge and making $45k+ /yr.
back to topic...
this resignation was expected for a while now, and nothing i'm suprised at. i think Time did a story on possible replacements, but i can't remember who was being considered for the job.

Colin Powell speaks fluent Yiddish. He has since he was a boy in my hometown of the Bronx, New York.
