I was being sent to Minneapolis for business. In talking with Meriam about my trip the following conversation took place:
Meriam: I don't remember where Minnesota is. Is it north, south, east or what?
I open Google maps to show the United States and point to Minnesota
Me: It's right here.
Meriam draws a line with her finger between Utah and Minnesota
Meriam: Oh look, you will be flying past the state with the big mountain that has the faces on it. Will you see it from the plane?
Me: You mean Mount Rushmore. I don't know if I will see it or not.
Meriam: So were the faces man-made or are they natural?
Me: Natural. Millions of years ago God decided to make a mountain look like four people who he would later let be born in different years and all become United States presidents.
Meriam: Really??
Me: No. I am kidding. Of course they're man-made.
