JUL 29, 23 .. A FIRST ENCORE FROM FROSTBITE FRANK

Yesterday, in our Post dated JUL 28, 23, we published a story that our friend Frostbite Frank sent to us. Because several of you were so kind as to comment on how very much you enjoyed yesterday’s story, we decided to publish a second story from Frank.

Just in case you have not yet read yesterday’s Post, to save you time and effort, you may read Frank’s first story below.

Students in an advanced Biology class were taking their mid-term exam. The last question was, ‘Name seven advantages of Mother’s Milk.’ The question was worth 70 points or none at all. One student was hard put to think of seven advantages but he wrote:

1) It is perfect formula for the child.
2) It provides immunity against several diseases.
3) It is always the right temperature.
4) It is inexpensive.
5) It bonds the child to mother and vice versa.
6) It is always available as needed.

And then the student was stuck.

Finally, in desperation, just before the bell rang indicating the end of the test he wrote:

7) It comes in attractive containers that are high enough off the ground so that the cat can’t get the milk.

He got an A+.

And now Frostbite Franks 1st encore!

An elderly cattleman from Texas once told a young female neighbor that if she wanted to live a long life, the secret was to sprinkle a pinch of gunpowder on her oatmeal each morning. She did this religiously every day for the rest of her life, and she lived to the ripe old age of 103.

When she passed on, she left behind 14 children, 30 grandchildren, 21 great-grandchildren, 5 great-great-grandchildren, and a 40-foot HOLE in the ground where the crematorium used to be!

Still laughing!
