I'm so proud of my little Leno-in-training!

 Nate had his Talent Show today. There were 36 acts, only 15 of which were NOT singing. Ugh. There are only so many High School Musical and Hannah Montana songs I can take. Nate was (lucky) #13 and was the only one doing jokes. Now, to me, having heard them 150 THOUSAND times, they no longer seemed funny. Well, ok, that's a lie. The first one is still hilarious to me, however corny it is. Anyway. He was an absolute riot! The kids laughed, the adults on the balcony laughed, even I laughed...and they were all CLEAN, Kindergarten-style jokes. I was so happy for him! He's SO not like me - I am NOT a public speaker! But he was not at all shy. Waltzed right up to that mic and just boomed out loud. Here was his repertoire:

1) What do you call a fish with no eyes?

<*> Fssshhh!

2) Knock, knock.
Who's there?
Banana.
Banana who?

Knock, knock.
Who's there??
Banana.
Banana who?!

Knock, knock.
Who's there???
Banana.
Banana who!!!

Knock, knock.
Who's there?!?!
Orange.
...Orange who?
Orange-oo glad I didn't say banana?

3) Why was the broom late?

<*> 'Cuz he over-swept!

4) What do you get when you mix a dinosaur and fireworks?

<*> Dino-MITE!

5) What was the snake's favorite school subject?

<*> Hiss-tory!

6) How do you make a tissue dance?

<*> You put a little boogey in it!

7) What do you get when you cross a crocodile with a flower?

<*> I dunno, but *I* dont wanna smell it!!

 
8) (Courtesy of my husband)
Knock, knock.
Who's there?
Interrupting cow.
Interrupting c....
MOO!!!!!!

and finally...

9) There are 5 cats sitting on a couch. One jumps off. How many are left?

<*> NONE! They were copy cats!
