"Little Johnny Strikes Again"*
*A grade school teacher in Kentucky asked her
students to use the word "fascinate" in a sentence.
Molly put up her hand and said, "My family went to
my granddad's farm, and we all saw his pet sheep it was fascinating."
The teacher said, "That was good, but I wanted you
to use the word 'fascinate', not 'fascinating'."
Sally raised her hand. She said, "My family went to
see Rock City and I was fascinated."
The teacher said, "Well, that was good Sally, but I
wanted you to use the word 'fascinate', not 'fascinated'
Little Johnny raised his hand. The teacher hesitated
because she had been burned by Little Johnny before.
She finally decided there was no way he could damage
the word "fascinate", so she called on him.
Johnny said, "My aunt Gina has a sweater with ten
buttons, but her boobs are so big she can only fasten eight."
The teacher sat down and cried.
