True And Amusing Anecdotes

Hello

Bizarre or funny things that really have happened!

IAS A teacher of English as a second language, I asked my students to write a composition about fire. One student wrote: "The fireman went into the building and came out pregnant." When I asked him to explain, he opened his dictionary and pointed to the word pregnant, which was defined as "carrying a child."

True And Amusing Anecdotes

Hello

Bizarre or funny things that really have happened!

I WAS attending a community education course on effective parenting. Ways of dealing with children's behaviour were discussed. At the last class, the instructor asked a very frazzled-looking mother of two, "Have any of these methods helped you handle your kids better?" "No," the woman responded. "But they have worked wonders on my husband!"

True And Amusing Anecdotes

Hello

Bizarre or funny things that really have happened!

WHILE traveling in the state of Gujarat, India, I decided to visit the father of an old school friend who lived in a small village. He ran an old fashioned peanut oil extracting mill called a "ghanchee." On my arrival I found him napping beside his ghanchee while the bull was powering the wheel, which crushed the peanuts. I woke him up and after a short chat asked, "How will you know if the bull stops while you are napping?" He smiled and pointed to the bells around the bull's neck and said, "If those bells stopped I would wake up and get the bull moving again." "But," I persisted, "how will you know if the bull just stands still shaking his head to ring the bells?" His old eyes widened as he exclaimed, "Son, he is a bull, not a college graduate."

True And Amusing Anecdotes

Hello

Bizarre or funny things that really have happened!

AS I was doing errands, I came upon a group of teenage boys engaged in animated conversation. One tall boy looked at me closely. "I remember you," he said. "You were my kindergarten teacher. Hey, guys, meet my kindergarten teacher!" Suddenly he looked puzzled. Leaning toward me, he said, "You know, you're not as tall as you used to be."
