5. I'm reminded of the English pupil who wrote in an exam:
Edited on Mon Jun-11-07 05:50 PM by LeftishBrit
"H2O is the formula for hot water.

CO2 is the formula for cold water."

Also:

"Who wrote Wuthering Heights?" Answer: "Jane Eyre".

"Who wrote Hamlet?" Answer: "Macbeth" (I witnessed that one!)

"Name a former Conservative Prime Minister." Answer: "Napoleon".

A beginning reader was asked for the 'first sound in the word cat", and replied, logically enough, "Meow".

6. I can't stop laughing: "Q: Find 'x'. A: Here it is. "
