Saw a hot, but very young, provider today.  She told me she plans to move to Bangkok.  She chattered on for a while about why she wanted to go there, the things she would do and see when she got there, how she'd support herself, etc.  After a few minutes I mentioned something about Thailand, to which she replied:

Once she asked me where I grew up. My reply:  "Upstate New York." Her response:  "[giggling] You think New York is a state?"

and didn't know it is in Thailand!  Well, on reflection, most of the time we don't hire these ladies for their intellect!

If it were, what's these people's excuse?

I knew a girl who thought Moby Dick was a venereal disease.

Not sure what her excuse is, but when I'm nervous I'm not the best conversationalist. I usually remain quiet, looking like a deer caught in head lights.

One of the best answers was "I'm not sure but I think the security guard over there can tell you." The other surprise answer was "Off the cost of Spain."

Many people sadly do not know things one would think everyone knows. Such as who is our Vice President.  It's really a shame. But people have better things to do then learn and retain information. There is Facebook after all. And You Tube. ;-(

in which a provider effused about her upcoming visit to D.C., our beautiful "state".

Whoever said common sense was common. Eom
