Class is in session. Every homework is graded (I try) and if you want extra pluses add a link to a current news story. Extra pluses also for amusing homework, poems or limericks. Work it, folks. Have fun.

It’s from Breaking Bad. A behind-the-scenes photo.
There was a character known as “La Tortuga” (Tortoise) who was working as an informant. The drug cartel found out and beheaded him and attached his head to the back of a tortoise.

Election rules are quite patrimonial
And often seem just ceremonial
This year
It is clear
The campaign season is too testudinal

It’s killing me! Two more debates? I’m not sure I can take it. I hope Trump improves in his performance, but it won’t change my vote, so let’s get to it!
A++++

Mitch McConnell’s testudinal actions in the Senate have shielded the Democrats from Republican recriminations.
So much so, that poor Mitch has picked up the nickname of “The Turtle”.

We realize The Donald is crude and all
But his problems are just attitudinal
Hillary acts so corruptly
He should catch her abruptly
But he’s closing at a pace that’s testudinal

Because of the testudinal shape of a battle tank, the Navajo Code Talkers of WW2 used their word for “Turtle” as the code for a tank.

A++++ Sooner the bimbo porn star gets off the news, the better. Hillary’s team of deceivers sure changed the subject. Next debate Trump better be better prepared.
