A new teacher was trying to make use of her psychology courses. She
started her class by saying, "Everyone who thinks they're stupid,
stand up!" After a few seconds, Little Johnny stood up. The teacher
said, "Do you think you're stupid, Little Johnny?" Little Johnny
replied, "No, Ma'am, but I hate to see you standing there all by
yourself,".

As a funeral train passes by a golf course a golfer on one of the
greens stops, and stands to attention with hat held over his heart as
the hearse goes by. Then he goes back to lining up his putt. His

seen. The first golfer sunk his putt and said, "Well, she was a good
wife for 16 years,".

Sherlock Holmes and Dr Watson go camping, and pitch their tent under
the stars.
During the night, Holmes wakes his companion and says, "Watson, look
up at the stars and tell me what you deduce,".
Watson says," Well, I see millions of stars, and from that I deduce
that there must be billions of planets, and then I deduce that there
are quite probably some planets like Earth, and so there might also be
other forms of life. Why, Holmes, what do you deduce?"
And Holmes replies, "Some bugger's nicked the tent,".
