You had to look that one up! Oh, no! You'd better keep studying. I seem to recall they asked questions like that in previous years. Well, okay, maybe mine was a little harder. You might still do okay on the test. As long as you got the one about the blind man right you'll be fine.

We should totally play John charades at Nationals! Thanks for the laughter; it's hard to remember that this isn't worth stressing over.
