I watch the ripples change their size
But never leave the stream
Of warm impermanence
And so the days float through my eyes
But still the days seem the same
And these children that you spit on
As they try to change their worlds
Are immune to your consultations
They're quite aware of what they're goin' through

Stop, Drop, and Roll with it, Baby

Random Michelle K and Janiece are doing it, so I thought I'd do it too.

The American Civic Literacy test.

For giggles I scored a 90.91%, missing three questions (Lincoln-Douglas Debates, benefits of International Trade and Specialization, and I mixed Debt and Deficit in my head, so got that last one wrong too).

Hey, how come it seems to be showing you guys what you missed and all I got was the score?

No fair.

Hey Nathan, below the score they gave the correct answers in red (for the ones you missed), then they displayed your quiz answers. Hope you still have it up in a window.

I think some of the answers in that quiz were biased. Especially those dealing with trade policy and markety policy. Just saying.

A mere 78%. Back to the books

You know this sounds like a cool test. I wasn't going to take it, but since Stewart says its biased, I'm going to give it a try. Will they revoke my citizenship if I fail completely?

Rick said...

Steve, you and I scored the same. We should be appointed to something or other, don't you think?

Steve Buchheit said...

Stewart, yeah the international trade question seemed a bit off to me. And the prevalence of the second amendment answers seemed a bit odd.

Todd, well, you did better than the average, so not bad.

Rick, I can haz ambassadorship now?
