The Laughter Zone / Tell the truth.

Our teacher asked me what my favourite animal was, and I replied,”Fried Chicken”. She said I wasn’t funny, but she must be wrong because the whole class laughed.

My parents told me to always tell the truth. I did. Fried chicken is my favourite animal. I told my Dad and he said my teacher was probably a member of PETA. He said they love animals very much. I do too, especially chicken, pork and beef. Anyway my teacher sent me to the headmaster’s office. When I told him what happened he laughed and told me not to do it again.

The next day in class our teacher asked me what my favourite live animal was. I replied, "Chicken because you can turn it into fried chicken". She sent me back to the headmaster’s office. He laughed and warned me not to do it again.

I don’t understand, my parents taught me to be honest, but my teacher doesn’t like it when I am. Today she asked me which famous person I most admired. I replied,”Colonel Sanders”.

Guess where I am now.

I was surprised too.  I'm certain there are many omissions.

Wow!  Some of those brought back some memories.  I recall being quite good at Etch-a-Sketch.  One glaring ommission from that list is the Spacehopper, which I believe came into existence in around 1969. I remember having one, and bouncing off of it, landing flat on my nose against the kerb.  I've still got a bump on my nose now, and find it difficult to find glasses that fit properly as a result!
