Happy Bastille Day!
Look it up.
After not having seen Jeopardy! at all in several months (can you say 'cold turkey'?), I watched an episode on Friday and knew three answers none of the contestants knew, namely:
What is Bewitched?
What is Bonanza?
What is (are?) the New York Mets?
The three contestants were all Gen Z'ers, and host Ken Jennings said they made him feel old.
Me too.
Of course, I am old, but that is beside the point.
Or maybe that is the point. At least I know what Bastille Day is.
Seacrest out.
Did someone in the Trump administration claim not to know the USA has a hurricane season? Surely, everyone in the world knows that. Maybe people (some) really are as ill-informed (educated) as they seem.
ReplyDeleteFor a minute I didn't know what your comment had to do with my post. Finally the grey matter clicked in and I saw what you are saying. Ignorance in high places, willful or otherwise, can have dire consequences. Thank you, Janice!
DeleteI love the expression of liberty, equality, and brotherhood. I wish we followed the sentiment.
