I went to my favourite Italian Restaurant for one of their famous pizzas.
The customer at the counter was waiting for his pizza take away (or "to go" as they say in USA).
The restaurant assistant put the hot pizza in a cardboard box and then holding the pizza slicer said: "Would you like it cut in eight or six slices?"
The customer replied: "Oh ... only six slices; I don't think I can eat eight slices".
Oh dear..makes you wonder where they were during fraction lessons in math class bless their heart.. And ... I may use "take away" at the pizza parlor next time. LOL +
ReplyDeleteThat's true Caroline. Education is not what it used to be.
ReplyDeleteWe call it take away in England and take out in Scotland.
God bless.
Well, you know what Thomas Merton ( Trappist Monk) said about a sense of Humour. When asked how you could tell if a person had gone through the transformation he answered, "It is almost impossible to tell but they ususally have a wonderful sense of humour." Looks like you are well on your way.
ReplyDeleteYes ... it's important to have a sense of humour.
ReplyDeleteGod bless you Melanie.
Ha!

Good one. Sadly, you could have ended that with "Inspired by a true story from the States!"
ReplyDeleteGod Bless.
When I look around me I'm saddened at the level of education in the UK.
