"Ever try training college grads who can't add without a calculator or couldn't write a grammatically correct sentence if you put a gun to their heads?"
From an old SNL skit:
History teacher: Okay, let's start with something easier. Who did we fight in World War II?
Class: [blank stares]
Teacher: O-kay. Umm--did anyone see "Raiders of the Lost Ark"?
Class: [nods in recognition]
Teacher: Alright, good! Now, who was Indiana Jones fighting in "Raiders of the Lost Ark"?
Student [raising hand]: Um--the Ark?
Teacher: No. . .It started with an "N". Na-- [signals class to finish word]
Class: Na. . .
Teacher: Na. . .
Class: Na. . .
Teacher: Na. . .zis. . .
Class: Na. . .zis. . .
Yeah...that's it.
