Some Lighter Moments.

I get to correct papers written by law students. Occassionally certain gems reduce the monotony of evaluating a hundred similar answers.
Here are two from a recent testpaper that I jotted in my collection today.
"The Supreme Court is a Court of Record with the power to condemn and punish itself."
"To be a Judge of the Supreme Court of India a person must be an opponent of the President or a distinguished jurist."
But then, was it my inability to convey the correct idea that resulted in this kind of an answer? Tomorrow, I have to check it up with the students concerned.
