Subj: Daddy
Sleeps Naked (S621, S767)
From: mauryschu on 12/4/2008
and
From: virv on 9/24/2011
'Late again,' the third-grade teacher said to little Sammy.
'It isn't my fault this time,
Miss Crabtree. You can blame
this'un on my daddy.
The reason I'm three hours late is
my daddy sleeps naked!'
Now Miss Crabtree had taught
grammar school for thirty-some-
odd years. Despite her
mounting fears, she asked little
Sammy what he meant by that.
Full of grins and mischief, and
in the flower of his youth,
little Sammy and trouble were
old friends, but he always
told her the truth.
'You see, Miss Crabtree; out
at the ranch we got this here
low down Coyote. The last
few nights he done et six hens
and killed Ma's best milk goat.
Last night, when Daddy
heard a noise out in the chicken
pen, he grabbed his shot
gun and said to Ma, 'That coyote's
back again, I'm a gonna
git him!''
'Stay back,' he whispered to
all us kids. He was naked as
a jaybird, no boots, no pants,
no shirt!'
'To the hen house he crawl ed,
just like an Injun on the
snoop. Then he stuck that
double barreled 12 Gauge shot
gun through the window of the
coop. As he stared into the
darkness, with coyotes on his
mind, our old hound dog Zeke
had done woke up and comes sneaking'
up behind Daddy. Then
as we all looked on plumb helpless,
old Zeke stuck his cold
nose in Daddy's crack!
'Miss Crabtree, we all been cleanin'
chickens since three
o'clock this Mornin.

Indian education scientist Sugata
Mitra tackles one of
the greatest problems of education
-- the best teachers
and schools don't exist where
they're needed most. In a
series of real-life experiments
from New Delhi to South
Africa to Italy, he gave kids
self-supervised access to

Little Johnny Scares Little Mary (S583c)
LABLaughsAdult on 3/21/2008 |
Little
Johnny
from Yahoo! Images |
"What are they doing, Johnny?"
Mary asked. Well, Little
Johnny, being a man of the world
for all his 12 years, knew
what they were doing but was
embarrassed to say it, so he
said, "Well, he's scaring her."
Little Mary said, "Oh."
They walked a little farther,
and Little Mary said, "Scare
me, Little Johnny." Well, Little
Johnny thought, "What the
Hell." So he took her into the
bushes and "scared" her.
After they were finished, they
started walking home again.
Pretty soon,they walked past
a stallion mounting a mare in
the field. "What are they doing,
Little Johnny ?", she asked.
"Well, he's scaring her." So
LittleMary said, "Scare me
again, Johnny." Well, Little
Johnny took her into the bushes
and "scared" her again.
After they were finished, they
started walking home again.
Pretty soon,you guessed it,
they saw a bull and a heifer in
the field, going at it.
"What are they doing, Little
Johnny?" she innocently (?)
asked again. "Well, he's scaring
her" Little Johnny said
once again. After a few more
minutes of walking, Little Mary
said, "Scare me again, Little
Johnny."
Now Little Johnny, being a little
tired by now, had just
about had enough, so he yelled
out,
"Boo, damn it, boo!"

Subj: What
The Teacher Said (S628c)
From: LABLaughsClean on 1/22/2009
What the teacher says and (what the teacher means)
1. Your son has a remarkable
ability in gathering
needed information
from his classmates.
(He was caught
cheating on a test).
2. Karen is an endless fund
of energy and viability.
(The hyperactive
monster can't stay seated for five
minutes).
3. Fantastic imagination! Unmatched
in his capacity for
blending
fact with fiction.
(He's definitely
one of the biggest liars I have ever
met).
4. Margie exhibits a casual,
relaxed attitude to school,
indicating
that high expectations don't intimidate her.
(The lazy
thing hasn't done one assignment all term).
5. Her athletic ability is marvelous.
Superior hand-eye
coordination.
(The little
creep stung me with a rubber band from 15
feet away).
6. Nick thrives on interaction
with his peers.
(Your son
needs to stop socializing and start working).
7. Your daughter's greatest
asset is her demonstrative
public discussions.
(Classroom
lawyer! Why is it that every time I explain
an assignment
she creates a class argument).
8. John enjoys the thrill of
engaging challenges with
his peers.
(He's a bully).
9. An adventurous nature lover
who rarely misses
opportunities
to explore new territory.
(Your daughter
was caught skipping school at the
fishing pond).
10. I am amazed at her tenacity
in retaining her
youthful
personality.
(She's so
immature that we've run out of diapers).
11. Unlike some students who
hide their emotion,
Charles is
very expressive and open.
(He must
have written the Whiner's Guide).
12. I firmly believe that her
intellectual and
emotional
progress would be enhanced through a
year's repetition
of her learning environment.
(Regretfully,
we believe that she is not ready
for high
school and must repeat the 8th grade).
13. Her exuberant verbosity is
awesome!
(A mouth
that never stops yacking).

Subj: No Child
Left Behind - Football Version (S607b)
From: bweidel on 8/23/2008
The football version of what
is going on in education
right now. (If you're not an
educator, this may not make
a lot of sense to you.
But send it to your friends who
are in education. They
will love it!)
For all the educators. In or out of the system.
NO CHILD LEFT BEHIND-FOOTBALL VERSION!
1. All teams must make the state
playoffs and all MUST win
the championship. If a
team does not win the championship,
they will be on probation until
they are the champions,
and coaches will be held accountable.
If after two years
they have not won the championship
their footballs and
equipment will be taken away
UNTIL they do win the
championship.
2. All children will be expected
to have the same football
skills at the same time even
if they do not have the same
conditions or opportunities
to practice on their own. NO
exceptions will be made for
lack of interest in football,
a desire to perform athletically,
or genetic abilities or
disabilities of themselves or
their parents.
ALL KIDS WILL PLAY FOOTBALL AT A PROFICIENT LEVEL!
3. Talented players will be asked
to workout on their own,
without instruction. This
is because the coaches will be
using all of their instructional
time with the athletes
who aren't interested in football,
have limited athletic
ability or whose parents don't
like football.
4. Games will be played year
round, but statistics will
only be kept in the 4th, 8th,
and 11th game.
It will create a New Age of Sports
where every school is
expected to have the same level
of talent and all teams
will reach the same minimum
goals. If no child gets
ahead, then no child gets left
behind.

Subj: Wet
Pants In Third Grade (S527b)
From: darrell94590 on 2/12/2007
Come with me to a third grade
classroom... There is a nine-
year-old kid sitting at his
desk and all of a sudden, there
is a puddle between his feet
and the front of his pants are
wet. He thinks his heart
is going to stop because he cannot
possibly imagine how this has
happened.
It's never happened before, and
he knows that when the boys
find out he will never hear
the end of it. When the girls
find out, they'll never speak
to him again as long as he lives.
The boy believes his heart is
going to stop; he puts his head
down and prays this prayer,
"Dear God, this is an emergency!
I need help now! Five
minutes from now I'm dead meat."
He looks up from his prayer and
here comes the teacher with a
look in her eyes that says he
has been discovered. As the
teacher is walking toward him,
a classmate named Susie is
carrying a goldfish bowl that
is filled with water. Susie
trips in front of the teacher
and inexplicably dumps the
bowl of water in the boy's lap.
The boy pretends to be irritated,
but all the while is saying
to himself, "Thank you, Lord!
Thank you, Lord!"
Now all of a sudden, instead
of being the object of ridicule,
the boy is the object of sympathy.
The teacher rushes him
downstairs and gives him gym
shorts to put on while his pants
dry out. All the other
children are on their hands and knees
cleaning up around his desk.
The sympathy is wonderful. But
as life would have it, the ridicule
that should have been his
has been transferred to someone
else - Susie.
She tries to help, but they tell
her to get out. "You've done
enough."
Finally, at the end of the day,
as they are waiting for the
bus, the boy walks over to Susie
and whispers, "You did that
on purpose, didn't you?"
Susie whispers back, "I wet my pants once too."

Little

from Yahoo! Images |
"Michael, if you were on a date
having dinner with a nice
young lady, how would you tell
her that you have to go to
the bathroom?"
Michael said, "Just a minute I have to go pee."
The teacher responded by saying,
"That would be rude and
impolite.
What about you Peter, how would
you say it?" Peter said,
"I am sorry, but I really need
to go to the bathroom.
I'll be right back."
"That's better, but it's still
not very nice to say the
word bathroom at the dinner
table
And you, little Johnny, can you
use your brain for once
and show Us your good manners?"
I would say: "Darling, may I
please be excused for a
moment? I have to shake
hands with a very dear friend
of mine, whom I hope you'll
get to meet after dinner."
The teacher fainted.
