THEN HOW COULD HE HAVE BEEN ACCUSED OF ASKING A COUNTRY TO INVESTIGATE HIS OPPENENT?
OPPENENT must be the right way to spell it. ESPECIALLY WHEN YOU YELL!

"Exactly" 8? You sure it's not "approximately" 8?
Actually, from a scientific, technical point of view, there are approximately 7 letters in "opponent", for large values of '7'.
Like O’bama.
> for large values of ‘7’ <
I taught physics for quite a few years. And my biology colleagues were always telling biology jokes. So finally I told them a physics joke: 1+1=3 for large values of 1.
They didn’t get it.

Thread titles in all caps are bad netiquette.
I dated a Cajun woman for a while in the late 70’s. Breathtakingly beautiful. Couldn’t understand one word of what her father and mother said.
LOL
And turn an 8 upside down and it is almost the same. Such stuff we learn here!!
My three favorite things are eating my family and not using commas.

Don’t forget the “Magic EIGHT Ball”. /s
My degree (back in the Stone Age of early 1970s) is in Physics; I understand!
I've had the good fortune to have worked in engineering companies throughout my career, so making techie jokes has been a viable option. Although a few times they flew over management's head, like the time I was discussing a development schedule, and referenced the run-up to a critical deadline as "panic is expected to increase as one over T-remaining".
I once tried to convince a friend who had just run a red-light, that if a cop showed up, he should argue that the light appeared green. He asked how to argue that red would appear green. I said, "Simple! Red looks like green, for short wavelengths of red." Unfortunately for my suggestion, no cop showed up, so I never learned whether it would have proved persuasive.
My favorite, though, was a charming love note I received decades ago:
"You are my knight in shining armor,
You are my ardent hero.
I love you as the limit of 1/x
As x approaches 0."
She was another techie, of course. :-)
