A kindergarten class had a homework assignment to find out something exciting and relate it to the class the next day. When the time came to present what they'd found, the first little boy called upon walked up to the front of the class, and with a piece of chalk, made a small white dot on the blackboard and sat back down.
Puzzled the teacher asked him just what it was. "It's a period," said the little boy.
"Well, I can see that," she said, "but what is so exciting about a period?"
"Darned if I know," said the little boy, "But this morning my sister was missing one, Daddy had a heart attack, Mummy fainted and the man next door shot himself."
