SILLINESS
Recently, USA Today carried an article detailing how silly answers are slowing down the census. One man, for instance, noted that his wife gets to work on her broom. Another fellow listed his state as “confusion.” A Meridian, Mississippi man wrote, “Not enough” when asked his income; “too many” when asked about his relatives. As if these weren’t bad enough, a northern California man simply turned in his 1970 Census form. I guess the one that took the cake, though, was the form that supposedly came from the late Elvis Presley, saying he now lives in northern Alabama! Now, we all know Elvis is dead, right?
