A 6th grade science teacher asked her class, "Which human body part increases to 10 times its size when stimulated?"
No one answered until Mary broke the silence and said, "You should not be asking sixth-graders a question like that! I'm going to tell my parents, and they will go and tell the principal, who will then fire you!"
The teacher ignored her and asked the question again, "Which body part increases 10 times its size when stimulated?"
Mary's mouth fell open. Then she said to those around her, "Boy, is she going to get in big trouble!"
The teacher continued to ignore her and addressed the class, "Anybody?"
Finally, Billy stood up, looked around nervously, and said, "The body part that increases 10 times its size when stimulated is the pupil of the eye."
The teacher said, "Very good, Billy." Then, she turned to Mary and told her. "As for you, young lady, I have 3 things to say. #1, you have a dirty mind; #2, you obviously didn't read the assigned chapter for your homework; and #3, someday you might be very disappointed!" -Author Unknown/Contributed by Ralph
