Always interesting to look at ads! I like the one about encyclopedias. :) I am terrible at spelling- so I wish I had thought of the kid's response when I was in school!
Thanks for the chuckles.

Thanks Jess...some kids are quick thinkers. I liked the kid who claimed his and his brother's story's were the same because they wrote about the same dog. How can you argue with that? :)
I still have a test paper my son took in 3rd grade almost 50 years ago. One of the questions was, "What do sharks eat?" His answer was, "Fish and swimmers." The teacher didn't mark it wrong. :)
What a great post. I'm laughing out loud at some of these classified ads. Great imagination on a few of them. Encyclopedias and washing machine especially. LOL. Hope all is well in your world. Good to hear from you! BB XX
Good to hear from you too Barb. My friends send me these things and if I think they are worth sharing, I do. These made me laugh to and those are the ones I like to share.
Very funny!
I liked the washer/dryer for sale.
:)
I liked that one too Jon...always good to hear from you. :)
These are great. I have to share them with my hubby. He'll especially enjoy the "multi-tasking" one. :)
