Story 354

So Juiced

By drinking all day, Mr. Proost, got so joost. He drank until his belt had

to be loosed. Then he drank some more until he fell from his bar roost.

Then, there on the floor, he said, "This is how I'm used, . . . to giving

my spirits a boost !"

Change: joost for juiced.

Story 355

Babe Ruth

As a youth, still without one front tooth, she used to watch the

Yankees from a press-box booth. Though the New York crowd was at

times a bit uncouth, she never had the slightest ruth. She says, “ It

was so much fun to see Babe Ruth, and that's the honest-to-goodness
truth !”

Story 356

To the Louvre ?

When Pierre made a false move, his teacher said: "Your behavior must
improve ! Your math, you always forget to prove, and your hat, you

never remove. Will you ever do anything of which I can approve ? All I

do is reprove, and disapprove !

"Now if you don't get into the groove, you'll be left behind when your

class visits the Loov!"

Change: Loov for Louvre.
