The "Cochon de Lait" bill is signed and we all have to live with it.
I used it to demonstrate the practical application of Scientific Notation to the 6th grader.
Problem Statement:

I then gave a Civics class by taking the Grandsons for ice cream and showing them just what you could buy with the tax cut we were getting. But even the 1st Grader understood the stupidity of voting for something you hadn't read.
