The children were lined up in the cafeteria of a Catholic elementary school for lunch. At the head of the table was a large pile of apples.

The nun made a note, and posted on the apple tray:

"Take only ONE. God is watching."

Moving further along the lunch line, at the other end of the table was a large pile of chocolate chip cookies.

A child had written a note, "Take all you want. God is watching the apples.

The children had all been photographed, and the teacher was trying to persuade them each to buy a copy of the group picture.

"Just think how nice it will be to look at it when you are all grown up and say, 'There's Jennifer, she's a lawyer,' or 'That's Michael, He's a doctor.'





A small voice at the back of the room rang out, "And there's the teacher, she's dead."

We used to sing back in my grade school days:

Glory! Glory! Hallelujah!
Teacher hit me with a ruler.
I socked her in the beanie
With a rotten tangereenie
And her teeth came crashing in!
