Nickel Johnny

Monday, September 3rd, 2007

There was a little boy named Johnny who used to hang out at the local corner
market. The owner didn’t know what Johnny’s problem was, but the boys would
constantly tease him.
They would always comment that he was two bricks shy of a load, or two pickles
short of a barrel. To prove it, sometimes they would offer Johnny his choice
between a nickel (5 cents) and a dime (10 cents) and John would always take the
nickel — they said, because it was bigger.

One day after John grabbed the nickel, the store owner took him aside and said
“Johnny, those boys are making fun of you. They think you don’t know the dime is
worth more than the nickel. Are you grabbing the nickel because it’s bigger, or
what?”

Slowly, Johnny turned toward the store owner and a big grin appeared on his
face and Johnny said, “Well, if I took the dime, they’d stop doing it, and so
far I have saved $20!”

Take Two

Monday, September 3rd, 2007

A little boy was watching a handyman at work on the upper story of a house.
Suddenly the man drops a hammer, and comes down the ladder to retrieve it.

The little boy calls out, “My daddy would have two hammers so he wouldn’t have
to come the ladder when he dropped one.”

The handyman says, “Yeah, that’s great, kid”, and climbs back up the ladder
and returns to work. Within a few minutes, he drops his screwdriver, and comes
back down the ladder.

The little boy calls out again, “My daddy would have two screwdrivers so he
wouldn’t have to come the ladder when he dropped one.”

The handyman mutters something and returns up the ladder. A few minutes later,
the man realizes he has to go to the bathroom. Unfortunately, he has no way into
the house, so he climbs down the ladder and goes behind a bush.

When he’s finishing up, he notices that the little boy has followed him. “I
suppose your daddy has two of these too?” he asked.

“Nope,” says the little boy, “but my daddy’s is twice as big!”

Alphabet For Homework

Monday, September 3rd, 2007

One day when jimmy was at school, the teacher told him that for his homework
he had to write out the first three letters of the alphabet.

when he went home he was struggling so decided to ask his mum. his mum was in
the kitchen cutting the salad when he asked her “mum, what is the first letter
of the alphabet?”
just as he had finished asking this question his mum sliced her finger open
and shouted “s***!!!”
jimmy wrote this down and went outside to see his older brother.

he asked him “big brother, whet is the second letter of the alphabet?”
his brother was crouched on the floor talking to a drugged up teenager and
jimmy heard him say “only if you give me some heroin!”

jimmy wrote this down and went into the living room and saw his little sister
watching superman.
“sister, what is the third letter of the alphabet?”
his sisters eyes were fixed on the the tv and she ignored jimmy. “superman!!!”
she shouted out in excitment.

the next day when jimmy went into school the teacher asked him if he had done
his homework.
jimmy then shouted out “s***!!!” (the first letter of the alphabet.)

his teacher was very angry and shouted “right young man, you’re going to the
head teacher!”
and jimmy replied by saying “only if you give me some heroin!” the teacher’s
face went red with anger and dragged jimmy to the head teacher’s office by his
ear. when jimmy and the teacher were in the head teacher’s office the
headteacher asked, “who do you think you, are young man?”

so jimmy shouted “superman!!!!!”

In a Minute

Monday, September 3rd, 2007

A kindergarten teacher was observing her classroom of children while they were
drawing. She walked around to look at the artwork.
As she got to one little girl who was working diligently, she asked what the
drawing was.

The girl replied, “I’m drawing God.”

The teacher paused and said, “But no one knows what God looks like.

Without missing a beat, or looking up from her drawing the girl replied, “They
will in a minute.”

One evening, a little boy and his family were having supper at his grandma’s
house. Everyone was seated around the table as the food was being served.
When he received his plate, the little guy began eating right away.
“Wait until we a say a prayer,” his mother admonished.
” I don’t have to,” he replied.
“Of course you do,” his mother insisted. “We always say a prayer before eating
at home.”
“That’s at home,” he explained. “This is Grandma’s house and she knows how to
cook!!”

Well Behaved Students

Monday, September 3rd, 2007

The fourth-grade teacher had to leave the room for a few minutes.

When she returned, she found the children in perfect order. Everybody was
sitting absolutely quiet.

She was shocked and stunned and said, “I’ve never seen anything like this
before. This is wonderful. But, please tell me, what came over all of you? Why
are you so well behaved and quiet?”

Finally, after much urging, little Sally spoke up and said, “Well, one time
you said that if you ever came back and found us quiet, you would drop dead.”
