Slip Of The Tongue
From the brilliant Mir at Woulda Coulda Shoulda
Last night we were going over practice questions, and he kept having trouble with the branches of the U.S. government and types of rocks. He kept insisting the government was made up of the Executive, Jubilant, and Legislative branches. Which was sort of adorable. (But wrong. The beatings helped, though.)
Finally, we were just about done, and I said, “Oh, by the way, Monkey… WHAT ARE THE THREE BRANCHES OF GOVERNMENT?”
He straightened right up and proudly declared:
“The EXECUTIVE, the JUDICIAL, and the SEDIMENTARY!”
I think he may be on to something, frankly.
