dean for whaaa?
So, today, in class, we had to form sentences using relative clauses. You know... things like "Merlot Cabernet, the jock suing the university, is a jackass."
So, we were given a stack of flash cards, and, trivial pursuit style, had to question others to get the names back as answers. For instance: "This jock, who is suing the university, is a jackass."
Well, let's see. I got the Beatles, and Howard Dean.
Who? WHO??? Who the hell is Howard Dean? These are some of the questions I got. Thankfully, the kids still knew who the Beatles were.
Yes, I know they're all maybe 19. I know they dont pay attention to politics, or the news. Hell, I barely do. But, for some reason, I was appalled at the fact they had no idea who he was. None whatsoever. EVEN WHEN I SAID IT IN GERMAN. Keywords: "wants to be the next president." They had no idea anybody even wanted to be president. They all looked shocked and amazed. Has Shrub really brainwashed everybody? Will we be ruled by Emperor Dunderhead for the next 20 years? If it's up to these kids, we would.
