Me: My life is a train wreck. 10-year-old: I know, Mom, but what is a metaphor? --------------------------------------------------------------------------- Chairman of the board to other members: “Of course, it’s only a suggestion, gentlemen, but let’s not forget who’s making it.” --------------------------------------------------------------------------- “How much does the Earth weigh?” asked a seven-year-old boy in class. The teacher, not knowing the answer, resorted to the best of education techniques: “That’s a very interesting question. Let’s see who can find the answer by tomorrow.” That night she made a beeline for the local library and after considerable effort, she arrived at the answer. The next day she asked the class if anyone had been able to find out how much the earth weighs. No one had. The teacher filled with pride announced the results of her research. The class pondered the answer briefly. Then the same small boy raised his hand and asked, “Is that with or without people?” --------------------------------------------------------------------------- AT the dinner table one evening our teenage daughter was telling us about a film she had seen at school. “It was on mental and emotional health,” she said. “And can you tell us,” I asked teasingly, “the exact difference between ‘mental’ and ‘emotional’ health?” “Well,” she replied, “the way I see it, mental health is how you feel about geometry; emotional health is how you feel about the boy who sits next to you in geometry.” --------------------------------------------------------------------------- We had taken our daughter to the local club where a couple of chefs were demonstrating their skill. As the Chinese chef cooked noodles using chopsticks, my wide-eyed daughter exclaimed, “Look, Mummy, he’s knitting his dinner!” --------------------------------------------------------------------------- Some of the children I examine as an optometrist need glasses but will do almost anything to avoid wearing them. Other youngsters, who do not need glasses, plead with me to prescribe them. One nine-year-old patient wanted to wear glasses very much. When I asked her to read the bottom row of letters on the chart, she said, “All right, I can see the O and the P and the T, but not the N and the Z.” --------------------------------------------------------------------------- I had been teaching my seventh graders about World War II, and a test question was, “What was the largest amphibious assault of all time?” Expecting to see ‘the D-Day invasion’ as the answer, I found instead on one paper, ‘Moses and the plague of frogs’.
