Question 3: You're making dinner, and you accidentally slice open your finger. Luckily, you live close to an emergency room, so you drive there and sit down. Then, a young woman, about 19, walks into the ER holding a small, perfectly healthy new baby. She walks up to a gurney, tosses the baby onto it and strides out. You see her jump into a taxi. You should: a) inform hospital staff of the incident, call the police and give them a description of the woman; b) run after the woman, pull her out of her cab, and ask her name and where she is going; c) remain seated and smile serenely as the woman ditches the kid; d) pursue the woman, chain her to a wall and read her "Horton Hatches the Egg."
Answer 3: C. If you do b or d, you could be breaking the law. If you do a, you'd be annoying the police department for no reason. According to California law, a mother can abandon her newly born child within 72 hours of its birth at designated sites across the state without fear of prosecution.
Question 4: You walk to the polls on Oct. 7 to vote in the gubernatorial recall election. You have decided to vote in favor of the recall and to vote for another candidate on the ballot. Before you came to vote, you were considering four candidates, but one of them does not appear on the ballot. Which one of the following four candidates is not on the ballot? a) Angelyne -- she could not fit on the ballot; b) Jack Kemp -- he's re-entering the NFL; c) Arianna Huffington -- she admitted her desire to reunite with bisexual former husband Michael; d) Larry Flynt -- he didn't want to sully his legacy by entering politics.
Answer 4: B. But he's not re-entering the NFL.
