The teacher asked, “Johnny what is your problem?"
Johnny answered, "I am too smart for the first Grade. My sister
is in the third grade and I am smarter than she is! I think I should be
in third grade too."
Mrs. Brooks had had enough. She took Johnny to the principal's
office. While Johnny waited in the outer office, the teacher explained
to the principal what the situation was.The principal told Mrs. Brooks
he would give the boy a test and if he failed to answer any of his
questions he was to go back to the first grade and behave.
She agreed. Johnny was brought in and the conditions explained to
him and he agreed to take the test.
Principal: " What is 3 x 3?"
Johnny: "9."
Principal: "What is 6 x 6 ?"
Johnny: "36."
And so it went with every question the principal thought a third
grade should know. The principal looks at Mrs. Brooks and tells her, " I
think Johnny can go to the third grade."
Mrs. Brooks says to the principal, " Let me ask him, some
questions?"
The principal and Johnny both agree.
Mrs. Brooks: "What does a cow have four of that I have only 2 of?
"
Johnny, after a moment " Legs."
Mrs. Brooks: " What is in your pants that you have but I do not
have ?"
Johnny: "Pockets."
Mrs. Brooks: " What starts with C and ends with T, is hairy, oval
and delicious and contains a whitish liquid?"
Johnny: " Coconut."
Mrs. Brooks: "What goes in hard and pink and comes out soft and
sticky?"
The principal's eyes open really wide and before he could stop
the answer, Johnny takes charge.....
Johnny: " Bubblegum."
Mrs. Brooks: "What does a man do standing up, a woman does
sitting down and a dog does on 3 legs?"
The principal's eyes open really wide and before he could stop
the answer.....
Johnny: " Shake hands."
Mrs. Brooks: "Now I will ask some 'Who am I' questions, okay?"
Mrs. Brooks: "You stick your poles inside me. You tie me down to
get me up. I get wet before you do ."
Johnny: "Tent."
Mrs. Brooks: " A finger goes inside me. You fiddle with me when
you're bored. The best man always has me first."
The principal was looking restless and a bit tense.
Johnny: "Wedding Ring."
Mrs. Brooks: " I have a stiff shaft. My tip penetrates. I come
with a quiver?"
Johnny; " Arrow."
Mrs. Brooks: "What word starts with F and ends in K and means a
lot of heat and excitement?"
Johnny: "Fire-truck."
The principal breathed a sigh of relief and said to the teacher,
" Send Johnny to University, I got the last ten questions wrong myself!"
