FW: PIANIST

 

 

Writing letters to son
The following is supposedly a true story. To be included, besides being
true, the story is most likely strange, weird, surprising, or funny.

One student fell into a cycle of classes, studying, working and
sleeping.

Didn't realize how long he had neglected writing home until he received
the following note:

"Dear Son, Your mother and I enjoyed your last letter. Of course, we
were much younger then, and more impressionable. Love, Dad."




A bribe for your professor
A professor was giving a big test one day to his students. He handed
out all of the tests and went back to his desk to wait. Once the test was
over, the students all handed the tests back in. The professor noticed
that one of the students had attached a $100 bill to his test with a
note saying "A dollar per point." The next class the professor handed the
tests back out. This student got back his test and $56 change



Tip the pizza delivery boy
A college pizza delivery boy arrived at the house of Larry Johnson. He
delivered the pizza to his trailer. After giving it to him, Larry
asked: "What is the usual tip?"

"Well," replied the youth, "this is my first trip here, but the other
guys say if I get a quarter out of you, I'll be doing great." "Is that
so?" snorted Larry. "Well, just to show them how wrong they are, here's
five dollars."

"Thanks," replied the youth, "I'll put this in my school fund."

"What are you studying in school?" asked Larry.

The lad smiled and said: "Applied psychology."



Picking on a tardy student
A college business professor could not help but notice that one of his
students was late to class for the third time that week. Before class
ended he went around the room asking students some questions about the
day's lecture. Of course, he made sure to pick on his tardy pupil.

"And who was it that developed the theories behind communism?" the
professor asked.

"I don't know," the student said.

"Perhaps if you came to class on time, Mr. Reebs, you would know," said
the professor.

"That's not true," the student replied. "I never pay attention anyway!"
