A Dumb Driver’s-ed Answer
My sister didn’t do as well on her driver’s-ed test as she’d hoped.
It might have had something to
do with how she completed this
sentence: “When the ______ is dead, the car won’t start.”
She wrote: “Driver.”

Spotted on Facebook…
Student: I don’t understand why my grade was so low. How did
I do on my research paper?
Teacher: Actually, you didn’t turn in a research paper. You turned in a random assemblage of sentences. In fact, the
sentences you apparently
kidnapped in the dead of night
and forced into this violent and arbitrary plan of yours clearly seemed to be placed on the pages against their will. Reading your paper was like watching unfamiliar, uncomfortable people interacting at a cocktail party that no one wanted to attend in the first place. You didn’t submit a research paper. You submitted a hostage situation.

Good morning everyboomie.
I'm having a hard time getting a diner posted tonight. You see I spilled coffee on my key board, and some of the keys don't work now.
Try writing anything without an 'i' key.
The only reason I'm able to post now is because at lunch today I went to Walmart and bought a wireless key board.
Not sure I'll keep it though because I'll probably have to get a new laptop.
I could do all my posting, and surfing on my desk top, but I need sensore input while I'm doing this, which means I need to be in front of my TV.
Once again, though it's near midnight and I still have to have a shower, so I've got to get going.
I am off today. YIPPEE!!!
Have a happy one everyone.
