Teacher wrote on the blackboard the word "Contagious". She then turned to the class and said "If anyone can put this word into a sentence, they get to leave the class early for their lunch break."
Immediately, all the hands were raised in the classroom. Little Johnny was begging to be picked. Knowing what a ratbag he is, the teacher picked li'l Mary in the front row.
"Before we went on holiday to Bali, we had to get injections so we wouldn't catch any contagious diseases." "Well done, Mary. Off to lunch you go."
"Anyone else?" Johnny was persisting... but the teacher resisted once again. She picked li'l Petey in the second row.
"My dog Rex got bitten by another dog and caught a contagious disease." "Well done, Petey. Off to lunch you go."
"Anyone else?" the teacher asked. Johnny was the only one with his hand held high.
"Yes, Johnny, go ahead."
"My dad was talking to the neighbour and he said he was going to paint his house with a two inch brush...dad said it was going to take the cont-agius!"
