Bro Basset mentioned a sarcastic test for students now a days
but yet, I did not laught too much at it because those types of
questions are slowly creeping in.  With everything having to be
politically correct or what have you, test today are a sad case.
With testing also comes how a teacher teaches the kids.
One particular situation brought this to my attention.
A year ir two ago, my younger sister got in trouble with my
parents.  My dad went to discipline her (good ol' whipping on
the behind ;) ) but as he went to do this, she yell's at him
saying, "if you spank me, I will call the police!"  When
asked why she said, "because my teachers say that spanking
is abuse and I can call the police!"  
What exactly are they teaching??  I about died when hearing this!
If spanking was abuse, Boy was *I* abused!  
Oh well, like I said, public schools are becoming a sad sight 
in todays world and will only get worse.
Indianpolis public schools are getting rid of their PE and art
classes to make budget cuts..hows that for being sad?
Overweight kinds with no sense of creativity.
