A friend of mine tried to annoy me with bird puns, but I soon realized that toucan play at that game.
As I was going to visit a friend, I saw my neighbor’s little child at the street corner holding two dollars and crying. I asked him, ”Junior, what is the matter?”
He replied, ”My mummy gave me one dollar to buy sugar and one dollar to buy soy milk, and now I can't remember which dollar is for sugar and which dollar is for the milk.”
Dr. Boudreaux was performing a science experiment on a common insect, the flea. He proceeded to carefully remove one leg from the flea on which he was working. Then he shouted, "Jump!", and the flea jumped. He recorded his findings as such, "flea can jump with one leg removed."
Then he carefully removed a second leg and said, "Jump!" Again the flea jumped with no problem and he recorded the findings. He continued the experiment one leg at a time until all the legs had been removed. The flea, now legless, sat motionless when ordered to jump.
"Hmmm, very interesting," Dr. Boudreaux commented. Then he recorded his findings..."When all the legs have been removed from a flea, he can't hear anything."
I wrote a romance novel. It's called, "She Fell In Love With A Painter, But He Gave Her The Brush."
