Something you can read out to your grandchildren over the Christmas holidays!!!   After Christmas, a teacher asked her young pupils how they spent their holiday away from school. One child wrote the following:  We always used to spend the holidays with Grandma and Grandpa.  They used to live [...]

One year, I decided to buy my mother-in-law a cemetery plot as a Christmas gift… The next year, I didn’t buy her a gift.

CAN YOU IMAGINE THE NUN SITTING AT HER DESK GRADING THESE PAPERS?   SHE MUST BE TRYING TO KEEP A STRAIGHT FACE TO MAINTAIN HER COMPOSURE.  PAY SPECIAL ATTENTION TO THE WORDING AND SPELLING.  IF YOU KNOW THE BIBLE EVEN A LITTLE, YOU’LL FIND THIS HILARIOUS!  IT COMES FROM A CATHOLIC ELEMENTARY SCHOOL TEST.  KIDS WERE [...]

I received this article yesterday as part of a post from the blog  Abundance Blog.  I couldn’t resist sharing it with you as it is so pertinent to Valentine’s Day and the feeling of love that is in the air around us all at this time.  A group of children ranging in age from 4 to 8 [...]

I spoke in my earlier History Humour .1 post about how things were in the early 1500s and how actual events gave rise to well known words and phrases.
