This is to show you that at least one Kindergarten teacher is helping young people rememeber to thank everyone for gifts or at the very least acknowledge the person who gave them a gift. Wow, what a concept. As a kid, we were barely permitted to breathe if we didn't write thank you cards. Mom was adamant that this MUST be done and by damn, it was done.

Now on to some mid-west humor -- sorry Minnesota but this is just too cute not to share!

&&&&&&&&&&

Ole and Sven were fishing on the Minnesota opener when Sven pulled out a cigar.Finding he had no matches, he asked Ole for a light.

'Ya, shure, I tink I haff a lighter,' he replied.Then reaching into his tackle box, he pulled out a Bic lighter 10 inches long.

'Yiminy Cricket!' exclaimed Sven, taking the huge Bic Lighter in his hands.'Vere dit yew git dat monster??'

'Vell,' replied Ole, 'I got it from my Genie.

''You haff a Genie?' Sven asked.

"Ya, shure. It's right here in my tackle box,' says Ole.

'Could I see him?

'Ole opens his tackle box & sure enough, out pops the Genie.

Addressing the genie, Sven says, 'Hey dere! I'm a good friend of your master. Vill you grant me vun vish?

''Yes, I will,' says the Genie.

So Sven asks the Genie for a million bucks.The Genie disappears back into the tackle box leaving Sven sitting there,waiting for his million bucks. Shortly, the sky darkens and is filled with the sound of a million ducks....flying directly overhead.

Over the roar of the million ducks Sven yells at Ole. 'Yumpin' Yimminy, I asked for a million bucks, not a million ducks!'

Ole answers, 'Ya, I forgot to tell yew dat da Genieis hart of hearing.

Do yew really tink I asked for a 10-inch Bic?'
