Kids Say the Darnedest Things!

Good morning my fellow Rotarians! Do we have any grade school teachers in the room this morning? Well I'm sure you would agree that kids can say the darnedest things! Right? As a parent or grandparent you know this as well.

So, thought I would share a few amusing quotes from some grade school teachers regarding things their students have written in papers. Here are a few examples:

• The inhabitants of Moscow are called Mosquitoes.
• A census taker is man who goes from house to house increasing the population.
• Water is composed of two gins. Oxygen and hydrogen. Oxygen is pure gin. Hydrogen is gin and water.
• Most of the houses in France are made of plaster of Paris.
• The people who followed Jesus were called the 12 opossums.
• The spinal column is a long bunch of bones. The head sits on the top and you sit on the bottom.
• One of the main causes of dust is janitors.
• The four seasons are salt, pepper, mustard and vinegar.
• The climate is hottest next to the Creator.
• Syntax is all the money collected at the church from sinners.
• Iron was discovered because someone smelt it.
• In the middle of the 18th century, all the morons moved to Utah.

And there you have 'em, quotables from our kids because they can say the darnedest things! And that's the bottom of our news on this Friday, August 5th, 2011.
