    Didn't she drop out in 9th grade?
    The first to state his case seems right until another comes and cross-examines him.

          Under "other", remember those tests where there was a list of words on the left and you had to match them with their counterpart from a list of words on the right?

            As a professional educator:


            1) Multiple choice - determines the capacity of a student's short-term memory
            2) Essay - determines the capacity of a student's ability to BWB (baffle with....)
            3) Fill-in the-blank with a word bank (see 1)
            4) Fill-in the-blank without a word bank (now we're getting somewhere!)
            5) Oral examination -

            Nothing determines a student's ability to defend their knowledge than examining them orally...

            Ummm...testing their oral capabilities...

            Ummm...requiring them to respond orally....

            :ummm...

            Never mind...

              I was only on a boomer once, though, and that was when I was in the reserves (doing circuit breaker maintenance). Happily for me, I got an 'A' in the class, the teacher asked to use my work as examples, and Penn State's English Department really liked the course (which meant one less non-engineering course to take at college). Due to CLEP tests and whatnot, I managed to reduce my required Liberal Arts courses to a single Art course and one technical writing course.

                I've always heard that pigs are really intelligent.

                  I only trust my dentist to do that.

                    That reminds me of a "get well" card I got once when I was in the hospital many years ago....

                    "There are two kinds of thermometers - oral and rectal - which kind do you have in your mouth?"

                    And, yes, there were pictures.

                        An old joke...


                        What's the difference between an oral and rectal thermometer...?


                        The taste!!!
