A mini-comedy:
[Setting: A Classroom. We begin in media res.]
Kid Yankee Fan #1 - Yankees!
Teacher - No, I'm sorry, the answer is not "Yankees." The correct answer is "The Fibonacci Sequence."
Kid Yankee Fan #2 - But the answer to EVERYTHING is Yankees!
Kid Yankee Fan #1 - If you cut us, do we not bleed pinstripe?
Kid Yankee Fan #2 - I'm all jacked up on Mountain Dew!
[Teacher sends Yankee fans to principal's office.]
Teacher: Now that we've gotten them out of the way, let's try a word problem. Bobby and Mandy are walking through the woods with pockets full of candy. They both have holes in their pockets. Bobby loses a piece of candy at a rate of 1 every 3.5 minutes. Mandy loses at a rate of 4 every 14.5 minutes. Who loses the most?
[Kid raises hand]
Teacher: Yes?
Kid: The Cubs.
Teacher: ...Can't argue with that one. _________________
