Smart Little Johnny

It's a real story that happened in one school when a teacher appeared to be a complete fool. Once when a teacher of math was sick a teacher of physical education came, named Nick. He wanted to show how intelligent he is so he said: Solve my problem please! - The car moves at a high speed. To go to Spain a plane we need. How old am I if the plane now is high in the sky? - If to take all these tasks and mix we’ll get the result: You are twenty six. - Right you are Johnny! Your arms are scrawny but brain is brawny. How did you solve this problem so quick? For me it’s easier to break a brick. - Well, our neighbor being so sleazy is thirteen, and my mum says that he is a semi cretin. ©Larisa Rzhepishevska (Odessa, Ukraine) For Francine Roberts contest "Humor Me"
