Sixth grade science teacher, Mrs. Parks, asked her class, "Which human
body part increases to 10 times its size when stimulated?"

No one answered until little Molly stood up angrily, and said, "You
should not be asking 6th graders a question like that! I'm going to tell
my parents, and they will go and tell the principal, and you'll get fired!"

She sat back down. Mrs. Parks ignored her and asked the question again.
"Which body part increases to 10 times its size when stimulated?"

Little Molly's mouth fell open, and she said to those around her, "Boy,
is she gonnaget in big trouble!"

The teacher continued to ignore Molly and asked the class, "Anybody?"


Finally, Jimmy stood up, looked around nervously, and said, "The body
part that increases to 10 times its size when stimulated is the pupil of
the eye."

Mrs. Parks said, "Very good, Jimmy."

Then she turned to Molly and continued, "As for you, young lady, I
have three things to say: First, you have a dirty mind. Second, you didn't read your homework. And third, one day you are going to be VERY, VERY disappointed!!!"
