If Greenland is so Green, why is it not green in the picture above? If it belongs to the U.S., why is it closer to Canada than to the U.S.?…Hey, Wait a minute! Have you noticed parts of Alaska are closer to Russia than to the U.S. ? Does this mean Russia belongs to the U.S.? It is getting confusing.
Every once in a while it is good to check on yourself, to see if you are ‘up on things’. Below, you will find this weeks multiple choice exam. Select the most appropriate:
- #1) “Who are you with?” This question has been in the news lately. It refers to: A) Your pick on who is going to win the March Madness pool this year. B) The question a Maitre’d asked JD Vance when he arrived an hour late for a dinner with the European Ministers of NATO in Munich. C) The question He Who Shall Not Be Named (HWSNBN) asks before he allows a reporter to ask a question of him.
- #2) “When was “The Day of Love”? A) Sometime over 2024 years ago in Bethlehem when a child was born. B) August 15th 1969 when a music festival on Max Yazgurs farm in Vermont with Joplin, Baez, Creedence, W. Guthrie, The Dead – all played there. C) Jan. 6, 2021 when over 1500 insurrectionists stormed the U.S. Capitol, destroying property and injuring police. They were convicted for their crimes and then pardoned by the President 2025. Many of the ‘Pardoned’ are back in jail on other crime related charges, ie., Assault, Sexual Assault, Drunkenness, Child pornography…those sorts of ‘Love Fest’ behaviors
- “What does it mean: “Pardon Me”? A) It is something which is said in Polite Society when you accidentally make a burping sound at the dinner table B) It is a phrase you utter when you are surprised to hear some unexpected thing like, “We are going to get Greenland, one way or another!” C) It is something you ask after you have defrauded your customers out of almost one hundred million dollars and are hoping a Donation of one of those millions will get you a pardon from the President… (It works)
Speaking of Pardons and making money – I have an idea: Selling ‘Pre-Pardons’. Let’s say you want to commit some sort of Crime – preferably a money making crime, and you realize in so doing, you may get caught. But if you have already taken caution and paid the President (or someone like that) a ‘Pre-Pardon’ fee (A Million Dollars, for example) you would never have to even suffer going to Court, let alone prison. Almost everybody wins. I’d like 10% for the idea: Pre-Pardon ©
(All questions above are best answered with the “C” choice. If you missed any of the questions, you are watching too much ‘Entertainment’ and not enough News.)
- “Those who understand evil pardon it.” -George Bernard Shaw
