Okay! Let's be honest now!

Are *YOU* smarter than a fifth grader?


Poem Artwork

Are You smarter than a fifth grader?
Well I have potential
I am a math wizard
But a calculator is essential
I love geography and have traveled quite a bit
English is mastered here
With slang tolerated...you know, Oh Shitz!
I can spell like nobody's bidness
Even in metaphors
I love historical architecture
Even the Old Czars of Yore
I can match wits with Jeopardy
I'm quick with answers and selections
My failing here is natural
Does everything need to be questioned?
Millionaire...no problem
I am immortal
Because of this benefit
I can always go back and get sorted
I am a game show entreprenuer
Can energize each question
Smarter than a fifth grader
I'd have to say "You betcha!"

I watched this show on my visit to my daughter..and I am willing to admit...I am NOT smarter...because I could NOT past one of those show-tests.....maybe because the questions were not about My country and stuff!!

Grrrrrr....Okay I am not..no excuse!!

Love Tinka

I think it's safe to say that I'm smarter than a fifth grader, but maybe not smarter than a sixth or seventh grader, HaHa!

Love, Pierre
