Maybe His Dad’s A TEA Partier

This week, students in Mr. Williams’ English class in the Forrest Gump School District were assigned to read two books, James Cameron’s “Titanic” and “My Life” by Bill Clinton.

One student turned in the following book report, with the proposition that they were nearly identical stories, and his teacher, gave him an A+ for this report.

Titanic:  Cost – $29.99
Clinton : Cost – $29.99

Clinton : Over three hours to read

Titanic:  The story of Jack and Rose, their forbidden love, and subsequent catastrophe.
Clinton : The story of Bill and Monica, their forbidden love, and subsequent catastrophe.
