Proverbs

A 1st grade school teacher had twenty-six students in her class. She presented each child in her classroom the 1st half of a well-known proverb and asked them to come up with the remainder of the proverb. It’s hard to believe these were actually done by first graders. Their insight may surprise you. While reading, keep in mind that these are first-graders, 6-year-olds, because the last one is a classic!

Problems with Maths

A Jewish couple had a son who was having a terrible time catching on with his math lessons. The couple tried everything that they could think of. They got the boy tutors, tried special Math workbooks, brought him videos and computer programs, everything they could think of, nothing helped the boy. Then one day a friend suggests that they try sending him to Catholic school and comments that maybe the public school system’s teachers just didn’t have the necessary talent to teach the boy Math. The couple figured that they had tried everything else that they could think of and Math is very important so they enrolled their son on the Catholic school in time for the beginning of the next grading period.

After school on his first day at the Catholic school the boy came home, grabbed a quick snack and hurried to his room to work on his homework. He stayed in his room until it was time for dinner, came to the dinner table to eat, ate quickly and returned to his room and his studies. This continued every night there after.

When the boy brought home his first report card from the Catholic school his parents were ecstatic to see that the boy had earned a B+ in Math. They called the boy from his room to ask him about and praise his miraculous improvement in Math. They asked the boy, “Was it the tutors?” the boy said “No”, they asked “Was it the workbooks or the videos” the boy again replied “No”. So they asked him what he thought it was that actually made him turn the corner and bring home such a fine Math grade. To this the boy replied: “When I got to that new school and saw that they had that guy nailed to that plus sign, I figured they were pretty serious about Math”

Blonde Sheriff

The local sheriff was looking for a deputy, so a blonde went in to try out for the job. “Okay,” the sheriff drawled, “what is 1 and 1?”
“Eleven,” she replied.

The sheriff thought to himself, “That’s not what I meant, but she’s right.” “What two days of the week start with the letter ‘T’?”

“Today and tomorrow.”

He was again surprised that the blonde supplied a correct answer that he had never thought of himself.

“Now, listen carefully: Who killed Abraham Lincoln?”

The blonde looked a little surprised herself, then thought really hard for a minute and finally admitted, “I don’t know.”

“Well, why don’t you go home and work on that one for a while?”

So, the blonde wandered over to the beauty parlor, where her pals were waiting to hear the results of the interview. The blonde was exultant. “It went great! First day on the job and I’m already working on a murder case!”

Google Image Games

You can have a lot of fun screwing around in Google Image Search. Sometimes, put in a word describing how you feel and the perfect picture appears, like this one when I searched for tired - cos boy am I:

Another one is searching a random word and looking at the crazy seemingly unrelated pictures which appear as a result of the crazy way the internets work.

Here I searched for “eyes” and got this picture, which is the one I really came to show you:

Truly a classic.
