How about a laugh, (hopefully)

Posted by Leonard @jakedduck1, Dec 31, 2018

I believe laughter is the best medicine. Laughter has actually been scientifically proven to help people with depression issues.
Let’s give it a try so we can all get happy and feel better. Many Epilepsy forums I’ve been on had joke sections. I was probably the biggest joke of all since I didn’t get a lot of the jokes. They said the jokes couldn’t be above 4th grade level for me to understand them so my jokes may be rather simplistic but let’s give it a try.
Have a lovely day everyone,
Jake

While riding my Harley, I swerved to avoid hitting a deer, lost control and landed in a ditch, severely banging my head.

Dazed and confused I crawled out of the ditch to the edge of the road when a shiny new convertible pulled up with a very beautiful woman who asked, "Are you okay?

As I looked up, I noticed she was wearing a low-cut blouse with a cleavage to die for.

"I'm okay I think." I replied as I pulled myself up to the side of the car to get a closer look.

She said, "Get in and I'll take you home, so I can clean and bandage that nasty scrape on your head."

"That's nice of you," I answered, "But I don't think my wife will like me doing that!"

"Oh, come now, I'm a nurse," she insisted. "I need to see if you have any more scrapes and then treat them properly."

Well, she was really pretty and very persuasive. Being sort of shaken and weak, I agreed, but repeated, "I'm sure my wife won't like this."

We arrived at her place which was just few miles away and, after a couple of cold beers and the bandaging, I thanked her and said, "I feel a lot better, but I know my wife is going to be really upset so I'd better go now."

Don't be silly!" she said with a smile. "Stay for a while. She won't know anything. By the way, where is she?"

"My guess is that she's still in the ditch."

We ran into that logic in a young man at the building supply center years ago, and I've never forgotten how amazed I was.
Here's the lesson my daughter's teacher used back in the 80's when trying to teach fractions:
When they insisted a 1/4 was bigger than 1/2 she would ask, "How many cents in $1.00, one-half dollar, and a quarter?" She would get the coins out and show them to the kids, and it would dawn on them.

I'm a retired elementary teacher and we could always get kids to understand fractions if we used manipulatives like change or blocks, etc. Guess it works on adults as well!

I might be able to learn fractions but they would have to use candy to get my full attention or I suppose a cake a pie or some cookies would do the trick too

I hate autocorrect. It's rumored that a famous scientist invented it. I'm certain it wasn't Albeit Einstein.
