Who is the president in USA now ?

That's not a stupid question. It's quite controversial isn't it? Might mean who's in the White House? But maybe it might mean who got elected last November?

And sometime squesdtions aren't wuersdtions at all. Maybe the person who asked Wesley if he worked in the shop was suggesting tha he wasn't working hard enough for his liking. Like the old crack "How many people work here?" - "Oh, about half of them!"
