Little Johnny gets an F in math

Most people didn’t enjoy math in school—numbers, fractions, and percentages aren’t exactly easy. Little Johnny was no exception, and his poor multiplication skills got him into trouble.

He came home and told his dad, “I got an F in math today.”
His dad asked, “What happened?”
Johnny explained, “The teacher asked, ‘What’s 3 times 2?’ I said 6.”
His dad replied, “That’s correct.”
Johnny continued, “Then she asked, ‘What’s 2 times 3?’”
His dad shouted, “What’s the difference?”
Johnny grinned, “That’s what I said!”

Another joke: A man’s morning habit of loud, smelly farts annoyed his wife. She warned him that one day he’d blow his guts out.

One Thanksgiving, she stuffed turkey innards into his underwear while he slept. Later, he ran to the bathroom in horror. When he finally came downstairs, he whispered, “Honey, you were right… but with Vaseline and two fingers, I think I got them all back in.”

A sailor, stricken in a wild and furious sea, fell to the deck of his ship to pray for salvation. The almighty unveiled a mountain in the midst of the tempest where the ship duly made landfall: in gratitude the sailor built a church on its summit. The devil – who had unleashed that evil storm – did his best to prise the church from its foundations, but Archangel Michael sprung to its defence and became the patron of this Devon parish. The tale has many versions, but this is the general gist. Today, St Michael de Rupe counts as the highest working church in southern England – poised dramatically on top of a western outlier of Dartmoor’s tor...

How to decorate your new home like a professional 1. Paint a colorful front door Your front door is your home’s first impression. A bold, colorful door makes a statement before your guests even cross the threshold. It’s an easy, affordable upgrade that sets the tone for your design aesthetic throughout the rest of the home. As for which color to choose, go with your gut — and be sure to complement your home’s overall exterior paint and trim colors. 2. Give every room a focal point Decide where you want the focal point to be in each room (and no, it doesn’t have to be a TV!). Perhaps it’s a stately fireplace, a feature wall, or the gorgeous view through a floor-to-ceiling window. Whatever it is, arrange your furniture and accessories to highlight the focal point.
