The following came from an anonymous Mother in
Austin, Texas...
Homeschooling Boys
Things I've learned from my boys (honest and not
kidding):
- A king size waterbed holds enough water to fill
a 2000 sq. ft. house 4 inches deep.
- If you spray hair spray on dust bunnies and run
over them with roller blades, they can ignite.
- A 3-year old Boy's voice is louder than 200
adults in a crowded restaurant.
- If you hook a dog leash over a ceiling fan, the
motor is not strong enough to rotate a 42 pound Boy wearing Batman
underwear and a Superman cape. It is strong enough, however, if
tied to a paint can, to
spread paint on all four walls of a 20 x 20 ft. room.
- You should not throw baseballs up when the
ceiling fan is on. When using a ceiling fan as a bat, you have to
throw the ball up a few times before you get a hit. A ceiling fan
can hit a baseball a long way.
- The glass in windows (even double-pane) doesn't
stop a baseball hit by a ceiling fan.
- When you hear the toilet flush and the words
"uh oh", it's already too late.
- Brake fluid mixed with Clorox makes smoke, and
lots of it.
- A six-year old Boy can start a fire with a
flint rock even though a 36-year old man says they can only do it
in the movies.
- Certain Lego's will pass through the digestive
tract of a 4-year old Boy.
- Play dough and microwave should not be used in
the same sentence.
- Super glue is forever.
- No matter how much Jell-O you put in a swimming
pool you still can't walk on water.
- Pool filters do not like Jell-O.
- VCR's do not eject "PB &J" sandwiches even
though TV commercials show they do.
- Garbage bags do not make good parachutes.
- Marbles in gas tanks make lots of noise when
driving.
- You probably DO NOT want to know what that odor
is.
- Always look in the oven before you turn it on;
plastic toys do not like ovens.
- The fire department in Austin, TX has a
5-minute response time.
- The spin cycle on the washing machine does not
make earthworms dizzy.
- It will, however, make cats dizzy.
- Cats throw up twice their body weight when
dizzy.
- 80% of Men who read this will try mixing the
Clorox and brake fluid.
