Food for Thought – It only takes a single thought to change the world.
Just for Laughs – A group of kindergartners was on a class outing to their local police station where they saw pictures, tacked to a bulletin board, of the ten most-wanted men.
One of the youngsters pointed to a picture and asked if it really was the photo of a wanted person.
“Yes,” answered the policeman.
“Well,” wondered the child, “Why didn’-you keep him when you took his picture?”
