Friday Funny: Teacher Joke

*sigh*  🙁   Well, the Summer Vacation is officially over.  Since I have so many friends who are teachers and School is about to start back here in Knox County,  I thought today’s Friday Funny should go out to all my Teacher friends.  You know,  just to help prepare them for a return to the classroom and all their wonderful students after a Summer break that may have dulled their reactions.

Enjoy!  😈

“There are three birds sitting on a wire.  A gunman shoots one of the birds.  How many birds are left on the wire?”

The boy pauses.  “None,” he replied thoughtfully.

“No, no, no.  Let’s try again,” the teacher says patiently.  She holds up three fingers.  “There are three birds sitting on a wire.  A gunman shoots one,”  she puts down one finger, “how many birds are left on the wire?”

“None,” the boy says with authority.

The teacher sighs.  “Tell me how you came up with that.”

“Well,” she says, “it’s not technically correct, but I like the way you think.”

“Okay,” chimes the boy, “now let me ask you a question.

Friday Funny: Poor Sheep

This week’s Friday Funny comes from deep within my e-mail archives. Actually, I just found it saved on an old external Hard drive when I was freeing up some space. The e-mail came me to originally from a friend in a previous life. It’s pretty old and I’m not sure why it has lasted on my drives as long as it has but, it’s a hoot!  😆

So, here ya go… Poor Sheep.
