Tom- “I don’t get it! Mrs. Pennington said I was acting like a fool! She told us we could use visable aids with our speeches. That’s all I did! Everybody liked it. They were all clappin’ and yellin’ and givin’ me high-fives.” The Principal- “What did you do Tommy?”
Tom- “I worked all week long! My Mom checked my spellin’ and said it was perfect."
The Principal- “Right?”
Tom- “ I told ya- Mrs. Pennington said we could use visable aids and then she got mad at me for no reason!! I love Science! It’s my favoritist subject! I’m going to be a doctor when I grow up. Did you know that?”
The Principal- “Tommy the expression is visual aids……….?”
Tom0 - “My Dad says it’s more likely I’m going to be the next Eddie Murphy. I don’t know how he figures that. I even got some brochettes from the medical schools. I going to send my applicate to them early so they know I’m comin‘.”
The Principal- “Tommy it’s application and brochure means….”
Tom- “Well, our speech had to be about ‘the human body.’ Cool, huh? "
The Principal- “Right.” Tom- "Mary chose the lungs and talked about the dangers of smokin‘. She’s a really good speech maker, but I actually liked Jack’s speech on the brain. You know… I could be a brain doctor- but I’m not sure yet. Actually-they may want to know what kind of doctoring I’m planning to do when I send my applicate next week. "
The Principal- “Right.”
Tom- “I did a speech on ’Our digesting system‘. It’s really interesting, you know? "
The Principal- “Right?”
Tom-“And Mrs. Pennington did say we could use visable aids. I was trying to figure out how I could I make a really great visable aid and then it came to me!”
So, when it was my turn…”
So, when it was my turn…”
The Principal- “Right?”
Tom-“I went to the front of the class, bent over- you know with my backside facing the class?”
The Principal- “Right?”
Tom- "Then I farted!”
The Principal- “Right!”
