Something Funny

My dad received an email about a teacher that had given her class the first half of famous proverbs or sayings and her first grade class had to complete them. Some of them were hysterically funny. My dad thought that it would be fun to do the same thing with our kids. So, he printed off the email and made copies of the paper without the second half of the sayings so that our kids could fill them in. Josh and Ali over thought this exercise and were frustrated that they did not know the "right" answer, like they were taking a test that they were going to fail. They just did not get that the point was to answer wrong and that is what made them funny. Anyway, Maveric's answer were quite funny. Here is what he said...

Strike while the...animal is still.
It's always darkest...before it rains.
Never underestimate the power of...lightening.
Don't bite the hand that....is yours.
You can't teach an old dog...not to dig in the trash.
Love all, trust...Jillian and Chandler. (His two best friends!)
A penny saved is...so you can buy something.
Don't put off till tomorrow what...you can play today.
Laugh and the whole world laughs with you, cry and...somebody's going to tell the teacher.
If at first you don't succeed...erase it.
When the blind lead the blind...you might have to feel goo. I'm thinking that he got this idea from the haunted house experience in Gatlinbug when Savannah said that she couldn't see anything and she was feeling the walls and it felt like goo.
A bird in the hand...poops.

Savannah knew a lot of these but some of hers were funny too...
If you lie down with dogs, you'll get up with fleas.
Laugh and the whole world laughs with you, cry and...they laugh at you.
there are none so blind as...blind people.
When the blind lead the blind...there's trouble.

Hope some of these made you smile...have a wonderful day!!
