Crayola. I would be their spokesperson in a heartbeat.

I assign planning committees for - and I'm not making this up - "the Fall Retreat, which will take place in February." The official-sounding language was most amusing.

I assign fictional worlds that help make your homework fun. We had the assignment to write a war poem for English, we are looking at World War II lately. I have been trying to write some minor poems about some battles in a fictional world I came up with and I changed one around a bit and finished my homework. It was so fun. Yay for creative like assignments in English class.

Apple computers.

Does your computer know how to tell knock knock jokes? Because mine does.

How does it do that? I have an apple computer but mine cannot tell knock knock jokes.

Under System Preferences, click Speech. Make sure 'Speakable Items' is on. Hold down 'ESC' and say, "Tell me a joke." Enjoy.

I assign waking up at ten (okay, that is something to assign, but there is more) to a phone call from a friend I haven't heard from in two years. And then having an awesome day to boot!
