• A STORY : Favourite animal
  • Our teacher asked us what our favorite animal was, and I said, "Fried chicken."
  • She said I wasn't funny, but she couldn't have been right, everyone else in the class laughed.
  • My parents told me to always be truthful and honest, and I am. Fried chicken is my favorite animal.
  • I told my dad what happened, and he said my teacher was probably a member of PETA.
  • He said they love animals very much. I do, too. Especially chicken, pork and beef.
  • Anyway, my teacher sent me to the principal's office. I told him what happened, and he laughed too.
  • Then he told me not to do it again.
  • The next day in class my teacher asked me what my favorite live animal was. I told her it was chicken.
  • She asked me why, just like she'd asked the other children.
  • So I told her it was because you could make them into fried chicken.
  • She sent me back to the principal's office again. He laughed, and told me not to do it again.
  • I don't understand. My parents taught me to be honest, but my teacher doesn't like it when I am.
  • Today, my teacher asked us to tell her what famous person we admire most.
  • I told her, "Colonel Sanders".
  • Guess where I am now...
