Dear askbrowning,
I am a just finishing up my junior year in high school and am planning on taking the ACTs and SATs sometime soon. I am looking into some test prep courses and books, but I was wondering if you had any suggestions, since you are a high school graduate and all. You are a high school graduate, right?
Sincerely,
Billy (Madison, WI)
Billy,
Let me start off by saying that there are some really amazing high school equivalency programs out there. Then let me tell you a little something my uncle Sam (who just so happens to be dating Hugh Grant's, sister's, best friend from girl scout's, facebook friend's, boyfriend's, couch's rightful owner) told me once. It's not what you know, it's who you know.
Do you know what Kevin Federline's ACT score was? Me neither (though I'm willing to bet it's about the same as value of the point where the X and Y axis meet on a graph), but that really doesn't matter because he knows Brittany Spears. How many records did K-Fed's rap album sell? I don't know (though I'm guessing that total was pretty close to his ACT score), but it doesn't matter, because he knows Brittany Spears... and he knew her before she went crazy, which is even better. See how this works? Nobody cares what you know until they know who you know.
Here's what I would do if I were you. I would take a pencil and paper out of your school bag and pen a letter to Danny Glover. Danny Glover may not be the first person you'd think of, but that's just because he's been on vacation for a while, planning out his spectacular comeback. Seriously, that guy's just about to blowup (Lethal Weapon 1-16 pun intended).
You know, it has been a while since I've seen Danny Glover on the silver screen. I am correct is saying that Danny just been away planning his comeback, right? He didn't pull a Kirk Cameron on us and start doing a bunch of crazy shows on the Trinity Broadcasting Network did he? Sorry, that really wasn't very fair of me to call that a Kirk Cameron. I know Buddy from Charles in Charge also did that, but I don't actually, nor did I ever, know his real name so I couldn't title the career move of making movies about the apocalypse and hosting shows on TBN where you evangelize random people on the street, after him.
So you get a hold of Danny Glover and then it really won't matter what your ACT score is. I'm willing to bet the quickest way to get Danny would be to email him at

I'm not certain that's his email address, but Danny tends to be a little bit behind the times, so I'm pretty sure he hasn't jumped on the gmail bandwagon just yet.
Much Love,
