Memory Test

Based on a true incident:

A long long time ago, in a small town, there was a small middle school. And the small middle school used to have an annual arts / sports / etc. festival...

One of the events was a memory test...you go to a room where some objects are kept, you have a few seconds to see everything, then you go back and write down the names of everything you saw on a piece of paper...and the kid with the most correct entries won..

simple? yes.

But what intrigued many kids was the fact that every year, the same girl came first, and she was - well, to put it nicely - not the brightest bulb on the Christmas tree.

The mystery was finally solved - and by none other than the girl who came second every year!

The small town had a small general store...and all the school purchases came from there...including the items for the memory test...and who owned the shop? our winner's dad...and that was how that cookie crumbled...
