What's wrong with John? He's been acting strange today, almost like he's in a trance. Is he having a Trelawney moment?

Melthos, why can't you just admit the educational recovery supply and service department is wasting our state's tax dollars. All you do is regulate emergency supplies of pencils and books in case of natural disasters. There are seventeen other agencies who do the exact same thing.
