There is This Time to Laugh

Yes, in the midst of busy-ness and serious-ness, let's laugh aloud for our mental health and overall well-being. Isn't humor one of the wonders of human living? Without laughter, life can be drab, joyless (not the one we use for the dishes ha?), but with laughter, the abdominal muscles can be exercised, giving us a good dose of oxygen that enlivens the circulation system, which facilitates relaxation, thereby giving a greater chance to be objective in life. Laughter suggests that friendship is not far behind, and that all problems can be resolved.

The following was sent me by Dr. Susana Estanislao, RGC. Thanks Susan.

By the way, before proceeding, let me CAUTION you: if you have a heart problem which might be aggravated by too much laughter, please don't proceed. But if God wants you to go away laughing, like a priest I know (Fr. Braganza, SVD in 1984?) it's your choice. For all you know, the following will reveal a lot about what's in your mind. Have no fear. Let the truth set you free and be responsible.

Ready?

LOOSEN UP!

A first-grade teacher was having trouble with one of her students, the teacher asked the boy, "What is your problem?"

Boy 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!"

The Teacher had enough. She took the Boy to the principal's office.

While the boy waited in the outer office, the teacher explained to the principal what the situation was. The principal told the teacher he would give the boy a
test and if he failed to answer any of his questions he has to go back to the first-grade and behave. She agreed.

Boy was brought in and the conditions were explained to him and he agreed to take the test.

Principal: "What is 3 x 3?"
Boy: "9".

Principal: "What is 6 x 6?"
Boy: "36".

And so it went with every question the principal thought a third-grade should know. The principal looks at the teacher and tells her, "I think this boy can go to the third-grade. "

The teacher says to the principal, "I have some of my own questions. Can I ask him ?"

The principal and the boy both agreed.

The teacher asks, "What does a cow have four of that I have only two of?"
Boy: after a moment, "Legs."

Teacher : "What starts with a P and ends in s, is in your pants that you have but I do not have?"



Boy: "Pockets."

Teacher : "What starts with a C and ends with a T, is hairy, oval, delicious and contains thin whitish liquid?"
Boy: Coconut

Teacher: What goes in hard and pink then comes out soft and sticky?

The principal's eyes open really wide and before he could stop the answer, the Boy was taking charge.

Boy: Bubblegum

Teacher: What does a man do standing up, a woman does sitting down and a dog does on three legs?


The principal's eyes open really wide and before he could stop the answer...









Boy: Shake hands

Teacher: Now I will ask some "Who am I" sort of questions, okay?
Boy: Yep.

Teacher: You stick your poles inside me. You tie me down to get me up. I get wet before you do.
Boy: Tent

Teacher: A finger goes in me. You fiddle with me when you're bored. The best man always has me first.

The Principal was looking restless, a bit tense.

Boy: Wedding Ring

Teacher: I come in many sizes. When I'm not well, I drip. When you blow me, you feel good.
Boy: Nose

Teacher: I have a stiff shaft. My tip penetrates. I come with a quiver.
Boy: Arrow

Teacher: What word starts with a 'F' and ends in 'K'that means lot of heat and excitement?


Boy: Firetruck

Teacher: What is it that all men have one of, it's longer on some men than on others, the pope doesn't use his and a man gives it to his wife after they're married?






Boy: SURNAME

Teacher: What part of the man has no bone but has muscles, has lots of veins, like pumping, & is responsible for making love?








Boy: HEART.

The principal breathed a sigh of relief and said to the teacher:

"SEND THIS BOY TO COLLEGE!, I GOT THE LAST TEN
QUESTIONS WRONG MYSELF
!"


How could you! You had other thoughts in mind. Grabe ka, Principal. I think you should consult the Guidance Counselor. haha God bless
