Dear Everybody,
I found this note shoved anonymously into my inbox:
Yes, Rivkale L.,
Why, you wonder, are English speakers scoring so unspectacularly on NEW. BAG
.ASS.?
I have given this issue a lot of thot.... and a lought of thought.
The problem is that English speakers know too much for their own good.
They're always complaining that the lessons are boring and catching their
teachers
in grammar errors and saying things like; You mean WING DINGS FONT, not
WINDINGS,
or, my parents say that there's nothing wrong with saying it this way.
Speaking of their parents, they are always whining for extra hours,
individualized lesson plans and
making fun of our accents when they think we don't here them.
On the oral exam, these kids won't have to forge a Teudat Zehut with their
picture on it.
When they get older and all their friends are taking on extra jobs to buy a
Latvia U degree, they
won't have to pay extra to have the documents translated. And when the present
Government
finally succeeds in achieving it's dream to overpolute, demoralize, Dovratize,
disengage and destroy the state
completely, they are the ones who already have valid passports and a place to
run to (Torunto is in Canada).
Cutting them down to size with Module E and G is just a way of getting us
some satisfaction.
