This was shameful. Not only had I little idea of how to correct my nephew PF’s French homework, but I also incorrectly “corrected” the work of another person who had been helping him. Exasperated I confessed my lost talents. “Didn’t you see last Tuesday’s Dreamaticus entry?” I cried, “I’ve forgotten all the French I ever knew!”

Strangely nobody asked why PF always relied on other people to finish his homework for him…
