Title: Mojo's Tuesday Pick-Me-Up
Post by: Mojo on March 29, 2011, 01:11:26 pm
Did you hear about the teacher who was helping one of her kindergarten students put on his boots?

He asked for help and she could see why. With her pulling and him pushing, the boots still didn't want to go on. When the second boot was on, she had worked up a sweat. She almost whimpered when the little boy said, "Teacher, they're on the wrong feet." She looked and sure enough, they were.

It wasn't any easier pulling the boots off than it was putting them on. She managed to keep her cool as together they worked to get the boots back on, this time on the right feet. He then announced, "These aren't my boots."

She bit her tongue rather than get right in his face and scream,"Why didn't you say so?" like she wanted to.

Once again she struggled to help him pull the ill-fitting boots off. He then said, "They're my brother's boots. My Mom made me wear them."

She didn't know if she should laugh or cry. She mustered up the grace and courage she had left to wrestle the boots on his feet again. She said, "Now, where are your mittens?"

He said, "I stuffed them in the toes of my boots..."

Her trial starts next month.

It was the final examination for an introductory Biology course at the local university. Like many such freshman courses, it was designed to weed out new students, having over 500 in the class!

The examination was two hours long, and exam booklets were provided. The professor was very strict and told the class that any exam that was not on his desk in exactly two hours would not be accepted and the student would fail. Half of an hour into the exam, a student came rushing in and asked the professor for an exam booklet.

"You're not going to have time to finish this," the professor stated sarcastically as he handed the student a booklet.

"Yes I will," replied the student. He then took a seat and began writing. After two hours, the professor called for the exams, and the students filed up and handed them in. All except the late student, who continued writing. An hour later, the last student came up to the professor who was sitting at his desk preparing for his next class. He attempted to put his exam on the stack of exam booklets already there.

"Oh no you don't! I'm not going to accept that. It's late." The student looked incredulous and angry. "Err do you know who I am?" "No, as a matter of fact I don't," replied the professor with an air of sarcasm in his voice.

"Do you know who I am?" the student asked again in a louder voice. "No, and I don't care." replied the professor with an air of superiority. "Good," replied the student, who quickly lifted the stack of completed exams, stuffed his in the middle, and walked out of the room.

Dead cow lecture at vet school



First-year students at the Vet School were attending their first anatomy

class, with a real dead cow. They all gathered around the surgery table

with the body covered with a white sheet.



The professor started the class by telling them, "In Veterinary medicine

it is necessary to have two important qualities as a doctor: the first

is that you not be disgusted by anything involving the animal body". For

an example, the Professor pulled back the sheet, stuck his finger in the

butt of the dead cow, withdrew it and stuck his finger in his mouth. "Go

ahead and do the same thing," he told his students.



The students freaked out, hesitated for several minutes, but eventually

took turns sticking a finger in the butt of the dead cow and sucking on it.



When everyone finished, the Professor looked at them and said, "the

second most important quality is observation. I stuck in my middle

finger and sucked on my index finger. Now learn to pay attention. Life's

tough, but it's even tougher if you're stupid. . .

Would You marry Again?




A husband and wife are sitting quietly in bed reading when the Wife looks over
at him and asks the question....

WIFE: "What would you do if I died? Would you get married
Again?"

HUSBAND:
"Definitely not!"

WIFE: "Why not?
Don't you like being married?"

HUSBAND: "Of
course I do.."

WIFE: "Then why
wouldn't you remarry? "

HUSBAND: "Okay,
okay, I'd get married again."

WIFE: "You
would?" (with a hurt look)

HUSBAND: (makes
audible groan)

WIFE: "Would
you live in our house?"

HUSBAND: "Sure,
it's a great house."

WIFE: "Would
you sleep with her in our bed?"

HUSBAND: "Where
else would we sleep?"

WIFE: "Would
you let her drive my car?"

HUSBAND:
"Probably, it is almost new."

WIFE: "Would
you replace my pictures with hers?"

HUSBAND: "That
would seem like the proper thing to do."

WIFE: "Would
you give her my jewelry?"

HUSBAND: "No, I'm
sure she'd want her own."

WIFE: "Would
you take her golfing with you?

HUSBAND: "Yes,
those are always good times."

WIFE: "Would
she use my clubs?

HUSBAND: "No,
she's left-handed."

WIFE: --
silence --

This is true: I saw an interview on TV where this couple had been married for 75 years. The interviewer asked what was the secret for their long marriage. The wife said, "When we got married we decided that he would handle all the big decisions, and I would handle all the small decisions. So far, we haven't had any big decisions."
The husband was sitting there shaking his head 'yes'.

Also, I almost failed my first quarter of college, but then I realized that I was using a black highlighter.

Thanks for the pick me ups.
