I MIGHT get a 65 on this exam. Some of the questions today are totally irrelevant even at my 'advanced age' - never learned the history of Kansas or know where Helca is in the world. And as far as board feet, in 1895, no one in the US even heard of a meter or the metric system.
And yes, Denny, that trans super needs to go home and wash his wife's mouth out. The kid - well unfortunately, he is a product of today's current society and most school systems. With that said, I think his parents need to have an in-depth look at what they have brought into the world and how they have prepared him for real life, that is, right after they give him a good swift kick in the butt to get his attention. I visited my single mom daughter in VA over Xmas. Her som, my grandchild is a BRAT. What he is doing is emulating what he sees on TV. Unfortunately, I was subjected to TV, Nickelodean, mainly. Sponge Bob is NOT a kids show. Another show, a movie on Xmas eve day, was 2 kids riding somewhere with daddy in his new Lincoln Navigator. Their mouth off and pranks are what kids see on the kids channel boob tube shows. Then kids watching this drivel do it to their friends and parents. So, can I totally blame the kids - no - this TV fare is put together by adults - and the more outrageous story line the better. This was also about the time that Britney's 16 year old sister announced she was in the family way - and the show continues on - with her still in a starring role.
