#Laughs ttle Johnny was in class and the teacher
announced that
they were going to try something different to help
everyone get to know
each other a little better, and to help with their
spelling.

She explained, "I want you to stand up and give us the
occupation of
your father, spell it, and say one thing he would give
us all if he was
here today."

The first student raised her
hand to volunteer.

"Marcy," the teacher said.

"You may go
first."

Marcy replied, "My father is a banker.

B-A-N-K-E-R and if he
was here
today, he would give us all a shiny new penny."

The teacher said, "Very nice, Marcy, who wants to go next?"

Kevin
stood up and announced, "My father is a baker.

B-A-K-E-R and if
he
was here today, he would give us all a freshly-baked cookie."

"Very good," the teacher told Kevin.

Jeff was next, and he said,
"My father is an accountant.

A-K, no wait,
A-C-K, no..."

Before he could attempt to spell it once more, the teacher cut
him off
and told him to sit back down and to think about it for a
while.

When
he thought he knew how to spell it, he could stand back up
and try
again.

Little Johnny raised his hand in excitement
hoping to be acknowledged
by the teacher.

The teacher called on
little Johnny to go next.

Johnny said, "My father is a bookie.

B-O-O-K-I-E and if he was here
today, he would give us all 20:1 odds
Jeff will never be able to spell
"accountant."
