The teacher
asked her class of eight-year-olds to use a sentence containing the word
fascinate. Molly put up her hand and said, "My family went to my
granddad's farm, and we saw his pet sheep. It was fascinating."
The teacher
said, "That was good, Molly. 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 was fascinated."
The teacher
said, "Well, that was good, Sally. But I wanted you to use the word 'fascinate.'"
Little Johnny
raised his hand. The teacher hesitated because Little Johnny had burned her several
times before. But she finally decided she had to be fair and give him a chance.
She also thought 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.
