 ;D You gotta love it!  This speaks for itself!


A 1st grade school teacher had twenty-six students in her class. She presented each child in her classroom the 1st half of a well-known proverb and asked them to come up with the remainder of the proverb.  It's hard to believe these were actually done by first graders. Their insight may surprise you.  While reading, keep in mind that these are first-graders, 6-year-olds, because the last one is a classic!

1. Don't change horses until ...they stop running.
2. Strike while... the bug is close.

16. A penny saved is... not much.

Life should NOT be a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely in an attractive and well-preserved body, but rather to skid in sideways, body thoroughly used up, totally worn out and screaming HOOOOYA lets go again baby !!!!!!

I really like 25. "a bird in the hand is going to poop on you."  I guess its the English side of my ancestory  and their bath room humor.

lol That, and alot of kids toys are electronic now.  So if at first they don't work, try new batteries. ;) Especially the newer ones that hoover through 'em.

Ah, such fun to be out riding...

Most things I have with batteries are rechargeable (like the iPod I said I'd likely never get  :P ).  I did have a wireless keyboard/mouse set though that went through AAs pretty quick, and heard digital cameras that don't come with the rechargeable batteries can burn through 'em pretty fierce.
