| On a special teacher's day, a kindergarten
teacher was receiving gifts from her pupils. The florist's son
handed
her a gift. She shooked it, held it over her head, and said, "I
bet I
know what it is - flowers!"
"That's right!" said the
boy, "but how did you know?"
"Just a wild guess," she
said.
The next pupil was the candy store owner's daughter. The teacher
held
her gift overhead, shooked it, and said, "I bet I can guess what
it is
- a box of candy!"
"That's right! But how did you
know?" asked the girl.
"Just a lucky guess," said the
teacher.
The next gift was from the liquor store owner's son. The teacher
held
the bag over her head and noticed that it was leaking. She
touched a
drop of the leakage with her finger and tasted it. "Is it
wine?" she
asked.
"No," the boy replied.
The teacher
repeated the process, touching another drop of the leakage
to her
tongue. "Is it champagne?" she asked.
"No," the boy
replied.
The teacher then said, "I give up, what is it?"
The boy
replied, "A puppy!" |
