Kitten of the Dorm

My college doesn't allow pets in my dorm, so when I got a kitten I had the guys in my dorm refer to him as "the Book" to avoid suspicion.

One morning, as I carried the kitten out to my car in a crate, my girlfriend stopped me and asked, "where are you taking the Book?"

"She's getting Spayed today," I said.

"Hmm..." she said. "I guess that means no sequels!"

How to Remember the Presidents

My American History teacher was giving a lecture about the first three presidents. A lot of people in my class can't remember presidents very well.

"You all are brainwashed," he said.

Of course, there was confusion in the room at this comment.

"Let me demonstrate," he continued, "'I'm Cuckoo for...'"

"Cocoa Puffs!" the class replied.

"You don't know the ninth president of the United States, but you know that you are 'Cuckoo for Cocoa Puffs.'"

Then, this one guy in my class said, "If the presidents were finger-lickin' good, we'd remember 'em."

News From School

"Dear Mother and Dad,

It has been three months now since I left for college. I have been remiss in writing and I am very sorry for my thoughtlessness in not writing before. I will bring you up to date now, but before you read on, please sit down. You are not to read further unless you are sitting down, okay?

Well, then, I'm getting along pretty well now. The skull fracture and the concussion I got when I jumped out of the window of my dormitory when it caught fire shortly after my arrival here is pretty well healed. I only spent two weeks in the hospital and now I can see almost normally and only get those sick headaches once a day.

Fortunately, the fire in the dormitory and my jump was witnessed by an attendant at the gas station near the dorm, and he was the one who called the fire department and the ambulance. He also visited me in the hospital and since I have nowhere to live because of the burnt-out dormitory, he was kind enough to invite me to share his apartment.
It's really a basement room, and it's kind of cute.

He is a very fine boy and we have fallen deeply in love and are planning to get married. We haven't set the exact date yet, but it will be before my pregnancy begins to show. I know how much you are looking forward to being grandparents, and I know you will welcome the baby and give it the same love and devotion and tender care you gave me when I was a child.

The reason for the delay in our marriage is that my boyfriend has a minor infection that prevents us from passing our premarital blood tests and I carelessly caught it from him. I have bumps all over my "down there" but this will soon clear up with the penicillin injections I am taking daily. I know that you will welcome him into our family with open arms. He is kind and although not well educated, he is ambitious. Although he is of a different race, color and religion than ours, I know your often-expressed tolerance will not permit you to be bothered by this fact.

Now that I have brought you up to date, I want to tell you that there was no dormitory fire. I did not have a concussion or a skull fracture. I was not in the hospital. I am not pregnant. I am not engaged. I do not have a disease and there is no miscegenation in my life. However, I am getting a "D" in history and an "F" in science, and I wanted you to see those marks in the proper perspective.

Your loving daughter, JL

First Delivery

"What's the usual tip?" a man growled when, Brett, a college boy delivered his pizza.

"Well," Brett continued, "this is my first delivery, but the other guys said that if I got a quarter out of you, I'd be doing great."

"Is that so?" grunted the man. "In that case, here's five dollars."

"Thanks," Brett said, "I'll put it in my college fund."

"By the way, what are you studying?" inquired the man.

And Brett replied, "Applied psychology."

Over Qualified

A young man hired by a supermarket reported for his first day of work. The manager greeted him with a warm handshake and a smile, gave him a broom and said, "Your first job will be to sweep the entire store."

"But I'm a college graduate," the young man replied indignantly.

"Oh, I'm sorry. I didn't know that," said the manager. "Here, give me the broom. Let me show you how."

Double D

A well-endowed university student was always being teased by her sorority sisters for being a size 36DD.

One night, at a fraternity party, a young man asked her what she would like to drink.

"I'll have a diet soda, please," she replied.

"Oh, you must be the double D," he said.

Furious, the girl wondered which one of her so-called friends had divulged such personal information.

"And just what do you mean by that?" she snapped.

Confused by her angry response, the man stammered, "You know, the designated driver."
