An elderly Priest
An elderly priest made it a practice to visit the parish school once a week.
he walked into the 4th grade class, where the children were studying the states, and asked them how many states could they name. They came up with about 40 names. He jokingly told them that in his day, students knew the names of ALL the states.
One lad raised his hand and said, "yeah, but in those days there were only 13."
