Thank Allah It's Friday
So says James Taranto whose Best of the Web is always, well, the best. Today I especially liked the note on the new high school diplomas in Nova Scotia:
On Tuesday, Nova Scotia's governing Conservatives unveiled a plan under which high schools would issue two types of diplomas. Regular graduates would get a regular diploma. But "graduates" who fail their literacy tests would get an "adjusted diploma" that notes their deficiency.
One has to wonder: if they can't read, what can they do? Maybe they're congenial?

Hmmmm - you could put anything on their diplomas - how could they tell?
