The kindergarten class had a homework assignment to find out about
something exciting and relate it to the class the next day. When the
time
came for the little kids to give their reports, the teacher was calling
on
them one at a time.
She was reluctant to call upon little Johnnie, knowing that he
sometimes
could be a bit crude. But eventually his turn came. Little Johnnie
walked
up to the front of the class, and with a piece of chalk, made a small
white dot on the blackboard, then sat back down. Well the teacher
couldn't
figure out what Johnnie had in mind for his report on something
exciting,
so she asked him just what that was.
"It's a period," reported Johnnie.
"Well I can see that," she said. "But what is so exciting about a
period."
"Damned if I know," said Johnnie, "but this morning my sister said she
missed one. Then Daddy had a heart attack, Mommy fainted and the man
next
door shot himself."
