Catholic
School: Math
Little Tommy was doing very badly in math. His parents had tried everything;
tutors, flash cards, special learning centers, in short, everything they
could think of. Finally in a last ditch effort, they took Tommy down and
enrolled him in the local Catholic School.
After the first day, little Tommy comes home with a very serious look
on his face. He doesn't kiss his mother hello. Instead, he goes straight
to his room and starts studying. Books and papers are spread out all over
the room and little Tommy is hard at work. His mother is amazed. She calls
him down to dinner and to her shock, the minute he is done he marches
back to his room without a word and in no time he is back hitting the
books as hard as before.
This goes on for some time, day after day while the mother tries to understand
what made all the difference. Finally, little Tommy brings home his report
card. He quietly lays it on the table and goes up to his room and hits
the books. With great trepidation, his mom looks at it and to her surprise,
little Tommy got an A in math.
She can no longer hold her curiosity. She goes to his room and says: "Son,
what was it? Was it the nuns?" Little Tommy looks at her and shakes
his head. "Well then", she replies, "was it the books,
the discipline, the structure, the uniforms, WHAT was it?" Little
Tommy looks at her and says, "Well, on the first day of school, when
I saw that guy nailed to the plus sign, I knew they weren't fooling around."
The
Preacher's Son
An old country preacher had a teenage son, and it was getting time the
boy should give some thought to choosing a profession. Like many young
men his age, the boy didn't really know what he wanted to do, and he didn't
seem too concerned about it. One day, while the boy was away at school,
his father decided to try an experiment. He went into the boy's room and
placed on his study table four objects:
1. A bible.
2. A silver dollar.
3. A bottle of whisky.
4. And a Playboy magazine.
"I'll just hide behind the door," the old preacher said to himself.
"When he comes home from school today, I'll see which object he picks
up."
"If it's the bible, he's going to be a preacher like me, and what
a blessing that would be! If he picks up the dollar, he's going to be
a business man, and that would be okay, too. But if he picks up the bottle,
he's going to be a no-good drunken bum, and Lord, what a shame that would
be. And worst of all if he picks up that magazine he's going to be a skirt-chasing
womanizer."
The old man waited anxiously, and soon heard his son's footsteps as he
entered the house whistling and headed for his room.
The boy tossed his books on the bed, and as he turned to leave the room
he spotted the objects on the table. With curiosity in his eye, he walked
over to inspect them.
Finally, he picked up the Bible and placed it under his arm.
He picked up the silver dollar and dropped into his pocket.
He uncorked the bottle and took a big drink, while he admired this month's
centerfold.
"Lord have mercy," the old preacher disgustedly whispered. "He's
gonna run for Congress."
