Are you qualified to be a U.S. citizen? Are you?

No, really, are you?

Take this test from MS NBC.

Funny thing…  most people are probably not qualified! :-)

0-20%: Maybe you’re still thinking too much about the Old Country.

25-40%: Mmmm. Do you really want to be a citizen? This kind of performance isn’t going to impress those nice immigration folks.

45-60%: Not too bad, but you really need to break out the civics books again — word is, the INS is looking for an 80 percent score.

65-80%: Hey, you may make a good citizen yet! Look at your wrong answers and a little revision should do the trick.

85-100%: Welcome to the United States! (And, truth be told, you know more about this great land than most Americans.)

I’ll be honest with you, I scored 30%.  That’s not good AT ALL!  I need to hit up history books now.

Actually, I’ve been planning on reviewing U.S. history for a while and I think this should serve as my que to do so :-)

The pride of our nation

I grew up with astronauts being the pride and joy of Russian empire. Well, I sorta viewed American ones in the same way.

Astronauts

What’s with them all these days though? Every other one is fucking the other one or cheating on whatever or whatever… What’s up??

Oh, my, do we have to read this?

Many NASA staffers knew or heard rumors that Lisa Nowak was having an affair with a fellow astronaut, long before allegations that she attacked a rival for William Oefelein’s affections, according to documents released Tuesday by the Florida state attorney’s office.

So, please, USAToday, tell me more about which astronaut fucks which one.

Thank you in advance.
