"I is a College Student"
A young man hired by a supermarket
reported for his first day of work.
The manager greeted him with a warm
handshake and a smile, gave him a
broom and said, "Your first job will be
to sweep out the store."
"But I'm a college graduate," the young
man replied indignantly.
"Oh, I'm sorry. I didn't know that," said
the manager. "Here, give me the broom
-- I'll show you how."

"Got Milk?"
A not necessarily well-prepared student
sat in his life science classroom, staring
at a question on the final exam paper.
The question directed:
"Give four advantages of breast milk."
What to write? He sighed, and began to
scribble whatever came into his head,
hoping for the best:
1. No need to boil.
2. Never goes sour.
3. Available whenever necessary.
So far so good - maybe. But the exam
demanded a fourth answer. Again, what
to write? Once more, he sighed. He
frowned. He scowled, then sighed again.
Suddenly, he brightened. He grabbed his
pen, and triumphantly, he scribbled his
definitive answer:
4. Available in attractive containers
of varying sizes.
