The trooper told the driver he was fascinated by juggling and said if the driver would do a little juggling for him, then he wouldn't give him a ticket. He told the trooper he had sent his equipment ahead and had nothing to juggle. The trooper said he had some flares in the trunk and asked if he could juggle them.

Intelligent Geese?

After discussing Cupid and Valentines day, my son says, "I still don't know why he has to wear a diaper."
