Keeping Up With The Assignments...
Mr. Bledsoe, the biology instructor at a very posh suburban girl's school, inquired during class, "Miss Carson, would you please name the organ of the human body, which under the appropriate conditions, expands to six times its normal size, and define the conditions."
Whereupon, Miss Carson inhaled sharply, then said icily, "Mr. Bledsoe, I don't think that is a proper question to ask me. Furthermore, I assure you my parents will hear of this."
With that, young Miss Carson sat down red-faced. Unperturbed, Mr. Bledsoe, amidst not a few snickers, called on Miss Turbeville, asking the same question. Miss Turbeville, with composure, replied, "The pupil of the eye, sir; in dim light."
"Precisely," said Mr. Bledsoe, smiling his approval.
"And now, Miss Carson, I have three things to say to you. Firstly, you have not studied your assignment. Secondly, you have a dirty mind. And thirdly, you will some day be faced with a dreadful disappointment." |
