Posted: 02/03/04 - 22:02 Post subject: Hoosiers (Kobyj will enjoy this one!)
A first grade teacher explains to her class that she is an Indiana Hoosier. She asks her students to raise their hands if they are Hoosiers, too. No one really knows what a Hoosier is, but wanting to be like their teacher, their hands explode into the air like fleshy fireworks. There is, however, one exception--a girl named Kristin has not gone along with the crowd. The teacher asks her why she has decided to be different.
"Because I'm not a Hoosier," she says.
"Then what are you?" asks the teacher.
"Why, I'm a proud Purdue Boilermaker," boasts the little girl.
The teacher is a little perturbed now, and her face is slightly red. She asks Kristin why she is a rebel.
"Well, my mom and dad are Boilers, so I'm a Boiler, too."
The teacher is now angry. "That's no reason," she says loudly, "What if your mom was a moron, and your dad was a moron. Then what would you be?"
A pause and a smile. "Then," says Kristin, "I'd be a Hoosier!"
