Good Morning Class. Welcome to School!

Alright Kiddies, it's time to pay attention. Class is now in session. The rules are simple, you get a grade if you use the WFTD in a sentence, haiku, limerick, or quatrain. You get a "+" if you make a link, or make the teacher laugh, or you offer the appropriate bribes. I hold the grade book, and the whip and chair.

Let's get this show on the road. Here is my example of the WFTD.

Robles changed the system so that he could search 10 years of city records and found that the six women had applied for a total of 43 marriage licenses. The husbands came from countries including Pakistan, Ecuador, the Dominican Republic, Peru, Trinidad, St. Lucia, India, Nigeria and other parts of Africa.

Oh good grief, I'd heard of green card marriages but this is ridiculous. Serial Brides??

It appears that these women have been making a profit from being a bride. 6 females have each done an amazing amount of turns through the marriage mart, look at how the numbers work: 6 brides with 43 husbands = 7.17 marriages each. And over a span of 10 years, that would be roughly .72 marriages per year.

Sooo, they're basically getting married every year to a new person to get them through immigration. Vafrous scam…provided you can keep your mouth shut and not blab that you've been married 6 times. Sheesh.

Actually I don't know what offends me more, the women or the men.
