they say the darnest things!!!!

Wow, how observant you are.
That is indeed George Washington.
No,
not the real one.
Yes, I'm pretty sure.
Right,
I know he looks just like him,
but I'm positive he is dead.
How do I know?
Because I'm your U.S. History teacher!?!?
I'm sorry, I didn't mean to confuse you.
How inconsiderate of me.
Next time, before I show The Patriot,
I'll remember to provide the background info.
I can't believe how thoughtless I was.
Am I being serious?
Of course!!!
What?
I sound sacarstic?
Who me?
Why would I use sarcasm?
I mean,
not every 8th grader in the U.S. knows that George Washington can no longer make cameos.
Really.
It's only been 210 yrs since his death.
It's ok.
Really.
