First Grade Perspective
First graders were given the beginning of these cliches, and were asked to provide their own endings:
• If you don’t succeed … go play!!
• Eat, drink, and … go to the bathroom!!
• He who laughs last … didn’t understand the joke!!
• People in glass houses … better not take off their clothes!!
• You can’t teach an old dog … new math!!
• It’s always darkest before … Daylight Savings Time!!
• All work and no play … is disgusting!!
• Never put all of your eggs … in the microwave!!
• Better to be safe than … punch a 5th grader!!
“Hi, Yo, Silver!”
The Lone Ranger and Tonto were camping in the wilderness. After they got their tent set up, both men fell sound asleep.
Some hours later, Tonto wakes the Lone Ranger and says, “Kemo Sabe, look towards the sky. What do you see?”
The Lone Ranger replies, “I see millions of stars.”
“What that tell you?” asked Tonto.
The Lone Ranger ponders for a minute, then says: “Astronomically speaking, it tells me there are millions of galaxies and potentially billions of planets.
“Chronologically speaking, it appears to be approximately a quarter past three in the morning.
“Theologically, the Lord is all-powerful and we are small and insignificant.
“Meteorologically, it seems we will have a beautiful day tomorrow.
“What does it tell you, Tonto?”
Tonto replied, “That you are dumber than buffalo…it mean somone stole tent.”
