Funny
Poop
· Little Johnny walked into the
kitchen, saw his mother making a cake and announced, "I'll be playing in
my room for the next two hours. I sure would like a piece of cake when you're
finished."
Later, when his mother brought him
a piece of cooled cake, Little Johnny exclaimed, "Golly, it worked!"
Puzzled, his mother asked,
"What do you mean?"
Little Johnny replied, "Daddy
said that in order to get a piece around here, you have to spend a couple of
hours playing first!"
