One day little Johnny was looking out the window as he sat in the back of his classroom. His teacher saw that he was daydreaming and thought she would attempt to turn this into a question for him. So she asked Johnny do you see those three birds sitting on the fence? Johnny said yes. Well if you shot one of those birds on the fence how many would be left? Little Johnny said none and the teacher said no Johnny there would be two birds left on the fence.
Well, little Johnny said I beg to differ Mame if I shot one of those birds on the fence then it would most certainly be dead and the remaining birds would most certainly fly away so there would be no birds left on the fence. The teacher said I like the way you are thinking Johnny but that is incorrect.
Well then little Johnny asked the teacher may I ask you a question then? The teacher said sure Johnny what is it then. Well if you see three ladies in a ice cream parlor eating ice cream cones and the first lady is biting on hers and the second lady is licking on hers and the third lady is sucking on her ice cream cone. Which one of these ladies is still married? The teacher pondered her answer carefully and answered well I guess it would be the lady who was sucking on her ice cream cone. Little Johnny said no Mame it would be the lady with a wedding ring on, but I like the way your thinking Mame' |
