Sam Eagle Presents: The Weird States of America, Thursday 9/7

[but_mostly_america]

Sam Eagle, as was his tendency, was standing behind a podium at the front of the classroom waiting for the appointed time. At said time he cleared his throat and began speaking.

Best not to question how an oversized felt eagle could clear his throat.

“Good morning, students! Welcome to my newest class, Sam Eagle Presents: The Weird States of America! We will spend the next few months learning about this great country and all 50 weird states that make it up. America is a wonderful country but unfortunately her individual states are all quite weird.”

Sam shook his head sadly. “It is only when the states come together that they can truly be a great nation.”

Probably because without being together they wouldn’t be a nation at all, Sam.

“So, today, students, we shall introduce ourselves! Please state your name, your favorite state, and whether or not you can name all fifty of them. Extra credit will be awarded for answers that are not weird.”

Sam nodded at the students, looking for a volunteer. “Who would like to begin?”

"Meep meep," Beaker said, pointing to himself, and then launched into an long, meeping ramble about his least favorite state--that of suspended animation--and how Dr. Honeydew should possibly think out experiments before freezing Beaker in place for many, many hours.

Did that have anything to do with the question Sam asked? Not really!

"Well at least he didn't have a hammer," Gonzo mused.

Not that anyone but Beaker and maybe Sam would have any idea why that wasn't a total nonsequitor.

"Meep meep meep," Beaker agreed with a resigned nod.

He'd get around to telling Gonzo about the giant mechanical sledgehammer let loose on the island since last summer eventually.
