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!
(The first line is the beginning of the proverb. The second is the 1st graders ending to it)
1.
Don't change horses
until they stop running.
2.
Strike while the
bug is close.
3.
It's always darkest before
Daylight Saving Time.
4.
Never underestimate the power of
termites.
5.
You can lead a horse to water but
How?
6.
Don't bite the hand that
looks dirty.
7.
No news is
impossible
8.
A miss is as good as a
Mr.
9.
You can't teach an old dog new
Math
10.
If you lie down with dogs, you'll
stink in the morning.
11.
Love all, trust
Me.
12.
The pen is mightier than the
pigs.
13.
An idle mind is
the best way to relax.
14.
Where there's smoke there's
pollution.
15.
Happy the bride who
gets all the presents.
16.
A penny saved is
not much.
17.
Two's company, three's
the Musketeers.
18.
Don't put off till tomorrow what
you put on to go to bed.
19.
Laugh and the whole world laughs with you, cry and
You have to blow your nose.
20.
There are none so blind as
Stevie Wonder.
21.
Children should be seen and not
spanked or grounded.
22.
If at first you don't succeed
get new batteries.
23.
You get out of something only what you
See in the picture on the box
24.
When the blind lead the blind
get out of the way.
25.
A bird in the hand
is going to poop on you.

Chava's comment of the day:
I was wiping chava's tush, and gnesh was avidly observing. conversation went as follows:
Gnesha: I see white dots on Chava's tush!
Chava: (eyes wide, wide open, in stuffy Chava voice) I think it's because I spoke Lashon Hawa

dlg replying on post!
i dont understand why i post something one minute and get a reply the next! this blog should not be a fulll time activity!!!!(attn shaini and chanale)! and what are the emails u guys use? (i think i have the wrong thing)
dlg is chai vekayom!
i am here and quite alright and i did not disappear, no need for panic! if you so desire, you can call the house after 4:15 at 440 498 1637. or email me.
Bennys email is bennymn@gmail.com or benny@bennysmusic.com
Rish- my mailbox is in the lobby of my building. if you can call it a lobby lol. if you come at the right time of night you may see a sleepover taking place on the floor of the lobby. the kids in my building have been known to do that. its mailbox labeled 2A, ma has the key.
BTW- we should do what bennys family blog does. no comments, everything you write is a post. its too hard to keep track of comments building up on old posts. what does everyone say? for ex, dlg left her contact info on a comment and its vanished along with her. especially when you dont see comments.
what else? I am boiling hot.

Chaos at the polls: Elder resident R' Berel Haskelevich nabbed flyers from the Hecht campaign. A chase began down Kingston Avenue but the literature was already thrown in the trash. Calm has been restored.
