Puns sent to us by visitors: "The bicycle wouldn't stand up - it was two-tired!"      from Katharine, in Boca Raton, Florida, USA "To jump off a bridge in Paris, one would have to be in Seine".       from Marcus "Give me that rubber band back, and make it snappy!"       from Joseph at Hong Kong International School, Hong Kong, China "The magician was so frustrated, he pulled his hare out!"       from Alex at Whitin Middle School, Uxbridge, Massachsetts USA "'I only have diamonds, clubs, and spades', Tom said heartlessly"      from Gina, at Collège Saint-Alexandre, in Aylmer, Canada "Horse racing enthusiasts are eagerly following a new line of animals resulting from the breeding of thoroughbred horses with other ungulates, notably the gnu and the yak. They have become known as Gnu Yaks, for short. These hardy racers can run the 7 furlongs on the turf track at Aqueduct in a Gnu Yak minute. Hey, if you can make it there you can make it anywhere, Gnu Yak Gnu Yak! They had a few of them in Iowa even, but they escaped. My friend Arthur told me that some were caught between Des Mooooines and Gnu Yak City - I know it's crazy but it's true. I guess it's a Gnu Yak state of mind. Just yesterday Arthur called his bookie and placed a bet on his favourite filly, Ann-June. He said 'I like Gnu Yak Ann-June, how about you?'"      from Rose, in Concord, North Carolina, USA The following were sent in by Alan in Battle Creek: "I'm not guilty!" Tom said without conviction. "I don't know what to buy in the grocery store," Tom said listlessly. A young chicken decided he wanted to go into journalism. He studied hard in school, and soon landed his first job. He worked hard over the years, always strivng to be honest, thorough and insightful. His big break came when he had the opportunity to cover a major political scandal. It was his best work ever. One day when he came home there was a young hen waiting there for him, and she gave him what he had worked so hard for: the coveted Pullet Surprise. Back to 'Puns' | Resources
