Craig Ferguson Passes Citizenship Test
http://www.foxnews.com/wires/2008Jan...rguson,00.html
LOS ANGELES — No need for any more honorary citizenships for talk show host Craig Ferguson. He's going to be the real deal.
The "Late Late Show" host announced Monday that he got a perfect score on his citizenship test, taken Friday in Los Angeles. The Scottish-born Ferguson will officially be sworn in a few weeks from now.
"All of you people born here, if you had to take that test _ well, Canada would be building a fence right now," he said on his CBS show Monday.
It started as a joke last June, when Ferguson received a letter from the mayor of Ozark, Ark., granting him "honorary citizenship" of the town for his kind words about its catfish. Ferguson started a campaign to get the designation elsewhere and is now an honorary citizen of 16,109 communities nationwide.
Deciding to become a citizen of the nation at large required him to take a test with such questions as "What month is the new president inaugurated?" and "Who is the chief justice of the Supreme Court?"
-----------------------------------------------------------------
Oh shit, now we'll never be rid of him. He is one of my wife's favourites, personally I think he's a smarmy git...

I like him 
He gets inaugrated in July and the Chief Justice is Sandra Day O'connor.

Do you ever do anything but read the newspaper and post headlines on BE?
I imagine you hunched backed and with your nose pressed against the printed page.
