Greetings--
Whoever asked you to do a report on Annie Oakley's "education" sent you on
a wild-goose chase.
Annie Oakley never received any education to speak of. Unless, of course,
you consider that shooting game from 9-years-old on is education fit for a
girl.
Have a look at the following pages:
"courtesy tickets used to be called "Annie Oakleys" -- because the famed
sharpshooter, as part of her act, would shoot holes in tickets, in effect
"punching" them. So you'd say, for example, "We didn't have to pay to get
into the concert; my friend at the radio station gave us some Annie
Oakleys." Isn't that great?"
