Excited as he was to receive the correspondence from museum officials, he couldn't help but point out that it was addressed to Kenton Slufflebeam.

That's gubbmint work, kid. Keep that in mind the next time someone suggests the government should fix something.

Ref post #19.

I failed the exam.

I get a big fat red “F”

Good one, but you have too much time on your hands. :D

I don’t think it is a matter of stumping people of another era or not.

Take your questions to any eighth grade class and see how well they process the exam. No, make it a exit exam from any public high school. Good Luck!

I don’t think the arcane nature of the subject matter is the point. It’s the mental gymnastics that an educated mind must perform. Our NEA Educational System is woefully lacking. Just MHO.

Gubbmint work got a young lady killed in North Carolina.

There’s no end to the examples of government incompetency that could be made.

[khnyny]

Yes, I know. (sigh)

I like your tag line.

Thanks. I had to Google Tracy Flick to figure yours out. What a twisted plot that movie (Election) has. Fitting! I like Matthew Broderick. Good actor who can really play the hapless victim well.

I needed a break from my inventory analysis...

Check this out. Hopefully, it’ll give you a chuckle.

A must watch. Hillary as Tracy Flick. (as explanation):)

That is hilarious. Life imitates art, no doubt!
