Excuses, Excuses

Here’s a thought that popped into our heads after reading the following excuse notes: Maybe teachers should stop worrying about their students and start grading the parents. “Dear school, please excuse John being absent on Jan. 28, 29, 30, 31, 32, and also 33. .” —“Please excuse Roland from phys ed for a few days. Yesterday he fell out of a tree and misplaced his hip.” –From All in a DAy’s Work, REAder’s Digest, Dec. 2007

The typo

The sound of laughter ringing through the church made it impossible for me to keep playing the organ.”What was going on?” I asked the pastor afterwards. He simply pointed to the hymn tuyped in the church bulletin. It read “sin, choirs of angels, sin in exultation.” –Diane Haley (from Reader’s Digest, Dec. 2007, All in a DAy’s Work)
