I. Waves of laughter:
~ You don't know shit!
A scientist and an atheist were seated side by side next to a little girl on an airplane. The atheist turned to her and said, "Do you want to talk? Flights go quicker if you strike up a conversation with your fellow passenger."
The little girl, who had just started to read her book, replied to the total stranger, "What would you want to talk about?"
Oh, I don't know," said the atheist. "How about why there is no God, or no Heaven or Hell, or no life after death?" as he smiled smugly.
The scientist interrupted and asked: "How about physics or evolution?".
"OK," she said. "Those could be interesting topics but let me ask you both a question first. A horse, a cow, and a deer all eat the same stuff - grass. Yet a deer excretes little pellets, while a cow turns out a flat patty, but a horse produces clumps. Why do you suppose that is?
The atheist and scientist, visibly surprised by the little girl's intelligence, think about it and say, "Hmmm, we have no idea."
To which the little girl replies, "Do you really feel qualified to discuss why there is no God, or how we evolve, when both of you don't know shit?"
And then she went back to reading her fairytales book.
~ I have a doctorate!
A scientist was at a doctor's office to take a brain scan.
The neurologist asked him: "What is your occupation?".
The scientist answered: "I am a doctor too!".
The medical doctor asked him again: "What kind of a doctor are you?"
The PhD hurriedly replied: "A doctor of philosophy".
Suprised, the neurologist silently laughed and started the memory test thoroughly.
II. Games:
— Let A Word Speaks Its Name:
... is a game that I invented which I used both in the classroom and on the road. The objective of the game is simple: find the hidden words behind any three-letters combination. Usually these three letters are found in licence plates. Here are three examples:
1. ABC =
2. YYY =
3. UFA =
— Anagram
Knock knock!
Who's there?
Anna Gramme!
Anna Gramme who?
Anna Gramme hands lawsinium the prize....
and LAWSINIUM exclaims "I WIN A SLUM!"
— Hiddenym
Jump into It;
Born to know,
We elude Him,
Only to Find:
Learn love,
Laugh well,
Be willing
To ask life;
What is God?
...Who can say?
We all live,
In the unum
Of His diem.
