Smarter, not Harder

Isa was bragging about a grade.  This doesn't happen much, as she doesn't usually care much.  She had my attention.

"We were supposed to pick a building or monument that is recognized around the world.  Then, we had to build it out of Legos.  Our grade was only based on how accurately we made ours look like the real thing.  My friends were picking the Eiffel Tower, the Leaning Tower of Pisa, and other stuff.  Well, I thought about it and I built the Washington Monument.  I finished in three minutes!"
