Nali: The World According to Student Bloopers
Martin Luther was
nailed to the church door at Wittenberg for selling papal indulgences. He died a horrible death, being
excommunicated by a bull. It was the painter Donatello's interest in the female nude that made him the father of
the Renaissance. It was an age of great inventions and discoveries. Gutenberg invented the Bible. Sir Walter
Raleigh is a historical figure because he invented cigarettes. Another important invention was the circulation of
blood. Sir Francis Drake circumcised the world with a 100-foot clipper.
The government of England was a limited mockery. Henry VIII found walking difficult because he had an abbess
on his knee. Queen Elizabeth was the "Virgin Queen." As a queen she was a success. When Elizabeth exposed
herself before her troops, they all shouted "hurrah." Then her navy went out and defeated the Spanish Armadillo.
