August 18 - Friday Funny - First Day of School

This week’s FRIDAY FUNNY comes about as 2 events converge.

The first is that Ohio State Football is only 2 weeks away. The OSU team is the consensus pre-season #1 team in the country.

The second event is that my youngest son starts kindergarten next week. Anyone that knows Jack, knows he is a quick wit and has an unbelievable attachment to Ohio State. I’m not sure how he came by those traits.

At any rate, I had a vision of my first conversation with the principal about Jack’s interaction with his teacher. It goes something like this:

Jack’s kindergarten teacher is a die-hard Michigan Wolverine fan. She tells the class to raise their hands if they are true Wolverine fans like her.

The children, not knowing what a Wolverine fan is, raised their hands. They too want to be just like the teacher, all except one little boy. He does not raise his hand.

The teacher approaches him and asks, "Why aren't you an Wolverine fan, Jack? They are the best team and I love them."

Jack responds, "I'm a fan of The Ohio State University Buckeyes."

The teacher asks, "Why are you a Buckeye fan?"

Jack states said, "Well, my parents are Buckeye fans."

The teacher, getting upset at this point, states, "Just because your parents are Buckeye fans doesn't make you one? What if your dad was a moron and your mom was an idiot, what would that make you?"

Jack thinks for a moment and says, "Well, that would make me a Michigan fan."

Parents - Don't let your kid be the kid in the below photograph. Remember the children are our future. Treat them well and let them lead the way.

Go Bucks. To see how many days till the Michigan game, go to this site.
