The four seasons

I have a friend in Nebraska. He sent me this.

Miss Sally Edwards is a highly esteemed third grade teacher at Washington County Elementary School.

In an effort to prepare her students for an all-important test, she compiled an exam consisting of 20 questions, which she administered to her class last Tuesday. The exam purposely covered a broad array of topics.

I call your attention to question #11, which simply read:

LIST, IN ANY ORDER, THE FOUR SEASONS:

1. ________ 2. ________ 3.________ 4.________

Now, could you possibly imagine that 67% of the students gave the following answer?

1. PHEASANT SEASON
2. DEER SEASON
3. TURKEY SEASON
4. HUSKER FOOTBALL SEASON

    I live in Ohio, and I believe it was Jeff Foxworthy who said that Ohio has four seasons...cold, freezing, blizzard, and construction. We are now entering construction. Roads are being fixed, and traffic is being held up all over the state!

    In Florida that would be changed to lovebug, mosquito, hurricane, and snow-bird seasons.
