I remember being in class and the in room intercom came on. The office secretary said to my teacher, "Mrs. Gillespie, your husband called and would like you to pick him up from the animal hospital on your way home." I chimed in, "Hey Mrs. Gillespie, whats he in for?" The teacher as well as the class cracked up. She informed us that he was a veterinarian.

Man even in the 9th grade I was a smartass.... ::)

I love the one about praying before eating. ["Now, Simon, tell me frankly, do you say prayers before eating?
"No sir, I don't have to, my Mom is a good cook."]
Not quite the same but it reminds me of an incident when I was 15 and my aunt slopped the peas and their juice onto my mashed potatoes:

H:            "Hey, I'm not going eat that now."
H's DAD:  "Eat it... it all goes to the same place!'
H:            "Have you ever tasted it after it has!"
My dad turned his face away as both he and my aunt began to chuckle.
