US History (Wednesday, February 1, 7th period)
Josh was still bitching to himself about the State of the Union address when the history class began arriving.
"As promised," he said, passing around papers, "I have a test for you today. I know you're thrilled."
1. What did Christopher Columbus do that was so important?
2. Who was John Smith and why should you care? The John Smith we talked about in class, thanks. Not just any guy named John Smith.
3. Compare and contrast living situations in Virginia and Massachusetts at the time of Jamestown and the Pilgrims.
4. Which of the following states was not one of the original thirteen: Vermont, Massachusetts, New Hampshire, or South Carolina?
5. What's that 36-word sentence in the Declaration of Independence that's so amazingly quotable?
"Question or concerns that aren't 'what's the answer to number 4?' Ask away."

2. I bet that name was an alias. Also, he was clever and kept Jamestown alive. Not sure how clever he actually was, could be that the rest were morons.
3. Neither of them had coffee, so why anyone wanted to live in either is beyond me, especially since Virginia was all about the deceases and slavery and what have you, while Massachussetts wasn't all that open minded and the people were freezing a lot.
4. Vermont.
5. "We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness."
