Cheeky Boy!

24 Nov
Jack and Jill (nursery rhyme)

Image via Wikipedia

Spud was in his English class.  Someone had never heard of the word ‘pail’.  The teacher explained it was a bucket as in,

Jack and Jill
went up the hill
to fetch a pail of water.

As she paused, Spud interjected,

Instead they found whiskey,
got a bit frisky
and now they have a daughter.

That’s my boy!

    Jack and Jill went up the hill
    For some hanky panky
    Jill had forgotten to take her pill
    And now there’s little Franky.

      He gets away with murder because his teachers like him.

      Hope you had a great Thanksgiving.

    Like mother like son, that was funny. If I had been the teacher, they would have heard my laughter all the way into France. That is how loud my laugh can get, I have a real belly laugh. You would have heard it I’m sure.
