The
kindergarten class had a homework assignment to find out about something
exciting and relate it to the class the next day. When the time
came for the little kids to give their reports, the teacher was
calling on them one at a time. She was reluctant to call upon little
Johnny, knowing that he sometimes could be a bit crude. But eventually
his turn came. Little Johnny walked up to the front of the class,
and with a piece of chalk, made a small white dot on the blackboard,
then sat back down. Well the teacher couldn't figure out
what
Johnny had in mind for his report on something exciting, so she
asked him just what that was.
"It's
a period" reported Johnny.
"Well
I can see that" she said. "but what is so exciting about
a period."
"Damned
if I know" said Johnny, "but this morning my sister said
she missed one. Then Daddy had a heart attack, Mommy fainted and
the man next door shot himself." |
