"So if Farmer Festus has 28 delicious apples and sells half of them, how many does he have left?" "Hard to say." "If he sells them on the futures market and times it right, he could end up with more than he started with." "Or he could be bucking for a subsidy. 28 apples is a pretty weak crop." "Suspiciously so." "As if I'd trust anybody who markets the mealiest variety of apple as 'delicious.'" "So, it depends." "It depends." "That's what I put on my test, and Mrs. Olsen gave me an 'E.'" "Really! That's what my friend Jim put in his dissertation, and they gave him a doctorate."

So I looked it up… an E grade actually does exist. Weirdness.

When we lived in Norfolk, VA our grading system was A-E… other side of the state, E became F. Thought it was weird. Fs are just as easy to change to Bs as Es are ;)

That’s how bad, incompetent teachers ruin children’s lives.I’m grateful I had Peter Tarrant, Mr.Moorhead and the English teacher whose name I can’t remember.On the other hand, my French and Music teachers were total incompetents.
