Can You Bear It?

A talking horse walked into a bar and approached the manager. “Excuse me, good sir,” the horse said, “are you hiring?”

The manager looked the horse up and down and said, “Sorry, pal. Why don’t you try the circus?”

The horse sniggers. “Why would the circus need a bartender?”


Teacher: Donald, what is the chemical formula for water?

Donald: H I J K L M N O. 

Teacher: What are you talking about? 

Donald: Yesterday you said it's H to O. 


Teacher: Millie, give me a sentence starting with "I."

Millie: I is... 

Teacher: No, Millie. Always say, "I am." 

Millie: All right. "I am the ninth letter of the alphabet."
