Funny Proverb - SavingsA Year 5 teacher was giving her Primary pupils a lesson in developing logical thinking.
'This is the scene', said the teacher.
'A man is standing up in a boat in the middle of a river, fishing. He loses his balance, falls in, and begins splashing and yelling for help.
His wife hears the commotion, knows he can't swim, and runs down to the bank. Why do you think she ran to the bank?'
A little girl raised her hand and asked, 'To draw out all his savings?'

Out of the Mouths of ChildrenA number of primary schools were doing a project on 'The Sea.' Children were asked to draw pictures or write about their experiences. Teachers got together to compare the results and put together some of the 'better' ones:1. Some fish are dangerous. Jellyfish can sting. Electric eels can give you a shock. They have to live in caves under the sea because I think they have to plug themselves in to chargers.

Good morning everyboomie.
Did ya miss me?
Yeah I know, I didn't either.
I have a bird and two dogs in my lap that did though. It's kinda cramped here.
The little one got hurt tonight. She's been bouncing off the walls as usual. Very hyper. Well she jumped off the chair and landed awkwardly on her leg, and she just screamed in pain like her leg was broken. She kept screaming and I thought for a minute I was going to have to head to the vet. She finally quit crying, and she's been quiet all evening.
My lap is really hot though, and not in a, you know, a romantic sort of way.
My next child will NOT be a lap dog.
Have a happy day everyone.
