HARRY THE GENIUS
A first-grade teacher was having trouble with one of her
students. The teacher asked, "Harry what is your problem?"
Harry answered, "I'm too smart for the first-grade. My
sister is in the third -grade and I'm smarter than she is! I think I
should be in the third-grade too!"
The teacher had had enough. She took Harry to the
principal's office.
While Harry waited in the outer office, the teacher
explained to the principal what the situation was. The principal
told the teacher he would give the boy a test and if he failed to
answer any of his questions he was to go back to the first-grade and
behave. The teacher agreed. Harry was brought in and the conditions
were explained to him and he agreed to take the test.
Principal: "What is 3 x 3?"
Harry: "9".
Principal: "What is 6 x 6?"
Harry: "36".
And so it went with every question the principal thought a
third-grade should know. The principal looks at the teacher and
tells her, "I think Harry can go to the third-grade."
The teacher says to the principal, "Let me ask him some
questions?"
The principal and Harry both agree.
The teacher asks, "What does a cow have four of that I have
only two of?
Harry, after a moment replies, "Legs."
Teacher: "What is in your pants that you have but I do not
have?"
The principal wondered, why does she ask such a question!
Harry replied, "Pockets."
Teacher: "What does a dog do that a man steps into?"
Harry: "Pants"
Teacher: "What's starts with a C and ends with a T, is
hairy, oval, delicious and contains thin whitish liquid?
Harry: "A Coconut"
The principal's eyes open really wide and before he could
stop the answer, Harry was taking charge.
Teacher: "What goes in hard and pink then comes out soft and
sticky?"
Harry: "Bubblegum"
Teacher: "What does a man do standing up, a woman does
sitting down and a dog does on three legs?"
The principal's eyes open really wide and before he could
stop the answer...
Harry: "Shake hands"
Teacher: "Now I will ask some Who am I" sort of questions,
okay? "
Harry: "Yep."
Teacher: "You stick your poles inside me. You tie me down to
get me up. I get wet before you do."
Harry: "A Tent"
Teacher: "A finger goes in me. You fiddle with me when
you're bored. The best man always has me first."
The Principal was looking restless and bit tense.
Harry: "A Wedding Ring"
Teacher: "I come in many sizes. When I'm not well, I drip.
When you blow me, you feel good."
Harry: "A Nose"
Teacher: "I have a stiff shaft. My tip penetrates. I come
with a quiver."
Harry: "An Arrow"
Teacher: "What word starts with an 'F' and ends in 'K' that
means a lot of excitement?"
Harry: "A Firetruck"
The principal breathed a sigh of relief and told the
teacher, "Put Harry in the fifth-grade, I missed the last ten
questions myself."
