Jose, can you see?

I recall reading Ray Bradbury's The Anthem Sprinters, in which Irishment, who apparenlty share a universal dislike for their national anthem (according to the story) have created a unique pasttime stirred by that distaste.

I rather like it. Of course, I'm one of those terrifying sopranos.

OT can sing it, too. I've heard him. In fact, on one occasion, we trapped Bones between us for the anthem, and he survived!

There was a day when I could sing the darned thing, but those "rockets red glare" really get me. When it's done well (and that ain't often), it can be rather inspiring...

O'Canada is actually kinda fun to sing.

I'm a little shaky on the Bill of Rights , and I don't know how to apply for citizenship. Good thing I never had to.

95%...wrong INS form...who'd have figured

[BigJon@Work]

100% INS form was the only one that worried me.

[Catmando]

I'm Canadian, so I didn't do very well, only got 55%

[barfle]

I missed two, giving me 90%. I zoned on representatives, thought senators, and 14 is a trick question, as evidenced by the lengthy explanation.

Lucked out on the naturalization form, though.

[Shapley]

Yeah, I lucked out on the Naturalization form, too. So I got 100%. I had to think a bit on the original thirteen. If I hadn't known Kentucky wasn't one of them I'd of been stumped. I had to use the process of elimination. New Zealand knocked one of the answers out right away.

I was on a roll till #20. I didn't think freedom of the press was specifically in the Constitution. But, what the Hell, neither does our president. I wonder how he would have done on the quiz.
