Please don't tell me that's a real test question for kids in 10th grade! If you don't know the 4 seasons by the time you're allowed to drive a car you should be shot! What kinda school curriculum is that anyway?

I'll bet if you asked most 16 year olds these questions you would get weird answers too. At 16 their minds are mush!

Y'all just ain't right.
Actually, those tests came from an area refered to as LA (Lower Arkansas). Over the years, the inbreeding of the offspring from the days of slavery with the Cajuns from LA., tree huggers, and lost yankees has created a group of people whose entire gene pool wouldn't fill up a 5 gal bucket.
