This has to be the most baffling post I've ever seen on here. A topic called Mrs Bagley. A question which is two questions. A multiple choice of two answers for the two questions. And then an invitation to vote.

Is this a dream? Someone wake me!

Phil, easy now. This sounds like a question right off one of my final exams!

What perplexes me is that I can only vote for one correct answer!

The odds are too high for getting the wrong answer. Rather pass on this one!

Yes, further choices were necessary. This may help all of you:
0 -Let's All Kill Constance
0 -2002
0 -Both A and B
0 -Neither A nor B
0 -Not enough information
0 -All of the above
0 -None of the above

Bonus Essay:
It was meant to be a T/F question! (T - F) Choose One!

Obviously the board is nearing the edge of 'there is really nothing to talk about'.

OKAY, then! In light of this "test" of knowledge, here's one based on Let's All Kill Constance.

In the novel, Let's All Kill Constance, an indirect reference is made to one of Ray Bradbury's books. The reference is one of the following:

A) Creating magical creatures in the garage that later turn into movie monsters at Saturday theater matinees.
B) Considering a time when the circus will be a required staple in every city and town in the country. But all clowns will be banned because they mostly frighten the children.
C) Talk of people using books to start fires in the future. And a mention of writing a book about a hero who smells as kerosene.
D) All movie writers should someday get tattoos and get those they say that move and tell stories. How easier it would be then for would-be writers to pen a story.

There you go! One of the above is TRUE!

Phil - please tell me you didn't vote. You're too endearingly English.

I wanna know the culprit. Hands up or you'll all be kept in after school!
