Sal and Moe were absent from class today. What an interesting coincidence. I wonder where they were.  Can you guess with some degree of certainty?

Ex.
They might have been playing video games together.

    1. You think they MUST HAVE BEEN WATCHING a soccer game? Do you mean that they would have missed a valuable class to watch a ball being kicked around? Unbelievable!

    1. Yes, and they will definitely have to go back to their consulate to ask for a ticket home when they get dropped from my class due to absences...

  5. Moe may have been meeting Barack Obama second time (I guess). However, I saw Barack Obama in Live program Television. Moe couldn't have met him.
    Sal might have been dating with his girlfriend.
