Subject: Assignment, 5th grade class
The teacher gave her fifth grade class an assignment: Get their parents
to tell them a story with a moral at the end of it. The next day the
kids came back and one by one began to tell their stories.
There were all the regular type stuff, spilled milk and pennies saved.
But then teacher realized, much to her dismay, that only Ernie was left.
"Ernie, do you have a story to share?"
"Yes ma'am. My daddy told a story about my Aunt Karen. She was a pilot
in Desert Storm and her plane got hit. She had to bail out over enemy
territory and all she had was a flask of whiskey, a pistol and a
survival knife. She drank the whiskey on the way down so the bottle
wouldn't break and then her parachute landed right in the middle of
twenty enemy troops. She shot fifteen of them with the gun until she ran
out of bullets, killed four more with the knife, till the blade broke,
and then she killed the last enemy with her bare hands."
"Good Heavens", said the horrified teacher "What kind of moral did your
daddy tell you from this horrible story?"
"Stay the hell away from Aunt Karen when she's drinking."
