outside when it looks like a gale may blow up is because some wild pollen may fall on them, or that little boys` breathes can put one into a fate worse than death. Well, in a way it can, if one does not use mouthwash. |
|
| After that, when I walked past the plants and shrubs in the school compound, I did so with new awe and respect when I looked at them. |
|
| Didn't you? haha |
|
| Well, sex, in the VI classroom, in school books, that is, did not happen again until Form Six. |
|
It came in the form of Mrs Leow and the reproductive organs of the frog, or was it rabbit? |
|
I don't know about others, but the frog is an amphibian, and the rabbit a mammal (I think). It was stressed to us that we are mammals too, so I guess that was the nearest we got to knowing the human reproductive system. You know, by association. I guess many left school thinking they had no reproductive system to speak of, if they were unfortunate enough to have to rely on the school's syllabus. |
|
Anyway, the lessons were not very clear about how they reproduce, more on what the system is. I am not surprised some just gave up and went on to become engineers, having being disappointed by all this, whilst others only learnt the truth when they joined the medical course, I suppose. |
|
| Nowadays, I wonder what they study in schools? I understand like Bob Dylan used to whine, '.....times, they are a'changing..........' - so it is I understand they learn about Aids. I mean, it's nothing to do with the Aids we learnt, First Aid. |
|
By the way, this reminds me of a piece of news I saw recently on TV. Women were often told it was all in the head if they did not seem to have a drive. Now, they have experimented with giving them some testorone, and, well, let's say they are ready to jump into it whenever they see something attractive. (It's published in the New England Medical Journal, if I remember correctly.) |
|
| Be careful though, before you start slipping that testorone powder into your spouse's coffee - it has to be prescribed, and no one knows the long term effect yet. |
|
| Did you get that? Long term effects. |
|
| I mean, we don't want you to have your kids wondering what happened to mom, do we? Also, she might just start wearing the pants around the house literally too, if not already metaphorically right now. |

| Start The Week Laughing |
|
A new pastor moved into a town, and he went out one day to visit his parishioners. |
All went well until he came upon this one house. It was obvious that someone was home, but no one came to the door even after he had knocked several times. Finally he took out his card, wrote on the back "Revelation 3:20" and stuck it on the back of the door. Revelation 3:20: "Behold, I stand at the door, and knock: if any man hear my voice, and open the door, I will come in to him, and will dine with him, and he |
| with me." Later in the week, as he was counting the offering, he found his card in the collection plate. Below his message was the notation "Genesis 3:10." |
|
| Genesis 3:10: "And he said, I heard thy voice in the garden, and I was afraid, because I was naked: so I hid myself." |
