Ignoring a deluge of requests, we’ll end the year with our annual pop quiz designed to show you how much smarter you are now than you were 364 days ago — ail thanks to the diligence and dedication of yours truly. We covered each of these topics in the past year, so don’t whine that I’m making up stuff to trick you.
Here’s a sample question:
I know M.A. would never make up stuff to trick me because: (a) M.A.’s honesty and fine character are legendary; (b) M.A. is a legendary character, and that’s fine with me, honestly; (c) uh, wa-a-a-ait a minute; maybe M.A. would trick me, d’ya think? (d) M.A. speaks to me, personally, in code through the classified ads.
The answer, of course, is...well, it’s so obvious I think we can skip that. So grab that #2 Ticonderoga and dig in.
Okay, that’s enough. Trade papers with somebody you didn’t copy from, correct them, then add up your score. If you got all of them right, you’re a very sick person who needs a good entry-level job to get your life back on track. If you got all of them wrong, then you’d better pick up a pencil or a crayon or something and start sending those questions in to M.A. immediately. You’re severely fact-challenged.
