Hiya Loonies... As you can see, I have been catching up on some of the stuff I should have sent over the past few days... Wishes & Dreams... - ANDREA xx ************<andrea@bloodaxe.demon.co.uk>************ *****<ajc6@ukc.ac.uk>***<bloodaxe@geocities.com>***** *** *** *** THE LOONY BIN *** *** loonies@bloodaxe.demon.co.uk *** *** *** ******************Internet Goddess******************* *********************ANDROMEDA*********************** ------- Forwarded foolishness follows ------- One day, in an effort to help stir up a class full of listless students, Loretta asked the students to each come up and put on the blackboard something that had caused a lot of excitement around their houses lately. She called on Nancy. Nancy went up to the board and drew a flower, stating that the flowers they'd planted that spring were all blooming, and that was causing a lot of excitement around their house. Loretta said, "That's very nice, Nancy." Next she calls on little Timmy, who goes up to the board and draws a stick figure of an animal. "What kind of animal is that?" asks Loretta. "That's a puppy," says Timmy. "We just got one of those, and it's caused a lot of excitement around our house lately." "That's very nice, Timmy," she replies. "Who wants to go next?" Dirty Johnny is waving more than ever; finally unable to ignore him any longer, Loretta says, "Okay, Johnny, you're next." Dirty Johnny goes up to the front of the classroom and draws a single dot on the board. "What's that?" she asks (afraid of what the answer is going to be). "That's a period," answers dirty Johnny. "My sister's missed two of those, and you can bet that's caused a lot of excitement around OUR house!"
