IT'S ALL IN THE MIND
A first-grade teacher, Ms. Brooks, was having trouble with one of her students. The teacher asked, "Harry, what's your problem?"
Harry answered, "I'm too smart for the first grade. My sister is in the third grade, and I'm smarter than she is! I think I should be in the third grade, too."
Ms. Brooks was in no mood for Harry's antics so she took Harry to the principal's office.
While Harry waited in the outer office, Ms. Brooks explained the situation to the principal who told Ms. Brooks he would give the boy a test. If Harry failed to answer any of his questions, he was to go back to the first grade and behave. She agreed.
Harry was brought in. The conditions were explained to him,and he agreed to take the test.
Principal: "What is 3 x 3?"
Harry: "9."
Principal: "What is 6 x 6?"
Harry: "36.".
And so it went with every question the principal thought a third grader should know.
The principal looked at Ms. Brooks and told her, "I think Harry can go to the third grade."
Ms. Brooks said to the principal, "Let me ask him some questions."
The principal and Harry both agreed.
Ms. Brooks asked, "What does a cow have four of that I have only two of?"
Harry, after a moment: "Legs."
Ms. Brooks: "What is in your pants that you have but I do not have?"
The principal wondered why would she ask such a question!
Harry replied: "Pockets."
Ms. Brooks: "What does a dog do that a man steps into?"
Harry: "Pants."
Ms. Brooks: "What's starts with a C, ends with a T, is hairy, oval, delicious and contains thin, whitish liquid?
Harry: "Coconut."
The principal sat forward with his mouth hanging open.
Ms. Brooks: "What goes in hard and pink then comes out soft and sticky?"
The principal's eyes opened really wide, and before he could stop the answer, Harry replied.
Harry: "Bubble gum"
Ms. Brooks: "What does a man do standing up, a woman does sitting down, and a dog does on three legs?"
Harry: "Shake hands."
The principal was trembling.
Ms. Brooks: "What word starts with an F and ends in K that means a lot of heat and excitement?"
Harry: "Firetruck."
The principal breathed a sigh of relief and told the teacher, "Place Harry in the fifth grade. I got the last seven questions wrong!"
