This is my favourite of all time. I have shared this many times to my friends, and all of them had a laugh.
"The ten year old boy was failing math. His parents tried everything to get him to do well in school but nothing worked.
Finally, they enrolled him in a Catholic school. From his first day, the boy spent every night poring over his books. When his first report card arrived home, he had received an A in mathematics.
"Son," his father asked, "what made the difference? The nuns? The textbooks?"
"I'd never taken maths seriously before," the boy admitted, "but when I walked in and saw that guy nailed to the plus sign, I knew this place meant business!"
