Bid On a Bushel of Brains

I like to consider myself a well-rounded guy. So I feel a deep sense of humiliation each time the vastness of my ignorance is exposed. One of the worst instances occurred in a classroom. A professor hellbent on knocking his smug students down a few pegs assaulted us with a quiz that included current events, mathematic equations and general trivia. One of his queries asked students to note the current price of a bushel of wheat. I had absolutely no idea. Oh, the shame I brought upon my farming forefathers!
