Test for little Trevor
A first-grade teacher, Ms. Brooks, was having trouble with one of her conservative students.
The teacher asked, 'Trevor, what's your problem?'
Trevor answered,'I'm too smart for the 1st grade. My sister is in the 3rd grade and I'm smarter than she is! I think I should be in the 3rd grade too!'
Ms. Brooks had had enough.
She took Trevor to the principal's office.
While Trevor waited in the outer office, the teacher explained to the principal what the situation was. The principal told Ms. Brooks he would give the boy a test. If he failed to answer any of his questions he was to go back to the 1st grade and behave. She agreed. Trevor was brought in and the conditions were explained to him and he agreed to take the test.
Principal: 'What is 3 x 3?'
Trevor : '9.'
Principal: 'What is 6 x 6?'
Trevor : '36.'
And so it went with every question the principal thought a 3rd grader should know. The principal looks at Ms. Brooks and tells her, 'I think Trevor can go to the 3rd grade.'
Ms. Brooks says to the principal, 'Let me ask him some questions.'
The principal and Trevor both agreed.
Ms.. Brooks asks, 'What does a cow have four of that I have only two of?'
Trevor, after a moment: 'Legs.'
Ms Brooks: 'What is in your pants that you have but I do not have?'
The principal wondered why would she ask such a question!
Trevor replied: 'Pockets.'
Ms.Brooks: 'What does a dog do that a man steps into?'
Trevor : 'Pants.'
Ms.Brooks: What starts with a C, ends with a T, is hairy, oval, delicious and contains thin, whitish liquid?'
Trevor: 'Coconut.'
The principal sat forward with his mouth hanging open.
Ms. Brooks: 'What goes in hard and pink then comes out soft and sticky?'
The principal's eyes opened really wide and before he could stop the answer, Trevor replied, 'Bubble gum.'
Ms. Brooks: 'What does a man do standing up, a woman does sitting down and a dog does on three legs?'
Trevor : 'Shake hands.'
The principal was trembling.
Ms.Brooks:'What word starts with an 'F' and ends in 'K' that means a lot of heat and excitement?'
Trevor : 'Firetruck.'
The principal breathed a sigh of relief and told the teacher,
'Put Trevor in the fifth-grade, I got the last seven questions wrong.....'

You forgot, what is a four letter word meaning "intercourse?"
OK,OK, Duckie. YOU can go to the fifth grade also. Congratulations. You would not believe how many people can't seem to get that one.
Yes I would, as a matter of fact, the questions the teacher asked would stump some!
Man, and here I though that I impressed you with my wit and intelligence; now I find I only impress you with my charm and good looks! :lol:

At least you have an option: Personally, I think charm and good looks are overrated, but since I appear to be lacking in both, I would think that.

Dude! Don't undersell yourself. You have real charm! That is why I am drawn to you!

This must be at least 10 years old, because if it happened today, Trevor would be a freshman in college. The principle would be a US Senator as well.

I think you are wrong. today the teachers would be more likely to say the answers you were THINKING Of are correct, because the ones he gave require thinking things out, and that is now forbidden in the school system.

While you are technically correct, may I point out that Trevor, not the principal, was the principle, and the principal would doubtless be juggling campaign speeches and fundraisers with court appearances for numerous indictments.
