britalone Kudos to Cadbury for snubbing Kraft's condescending takeover offer! Cadbury is a time-honored tradition (has gluten-free products YAY for me!!!) and incidentally is my favorite chocolate brand. Kraft would only do something terrible to it like add plastic cheese or inferior ingredients. Yuck. Cadbury---hold your ground!

OUT OF THE MOUTHS OF CHILDREN
I just love these kid things. .
1) NUDITY. I was driving with my three young children one warm summer
evening when a woman in the convertible ahead of us stood up and waved. She
was stark naked! As I was reeling from the shock, I heard my 5-year-old
shout from the back seat, "Mom, that lady isnt wearing a seat belt!"
2) OPINIONS. On the first day of school, a first-grader handed his teacher a
note from his mother. The note read, The opinions expressed by this child
are not necessarily those of his parents.
3) KETCHUP. A woman was trying hard to get the ketchup out of the jar.
During her struggle the phone rang so she asked her 4-year-old daughter to
answer the phone. Mommy cant come to the phone to talk to you right now.
"She's hitting the bottle."
4) MORE NUDITY. A little boy got lost at the YMCA and found himself in the
womens locker room. When he was spotted, the room burst into shrieks, with
ladies grabbing towels and running for cover. The little boy watched in
amazement and then asked, "What's the matter, haven't you ever seen a little
boy before?"
5) POLICE # 1. While taking a routine vandalism report at an elementary
school, I was interrupted by a little girl about 6 years old. Looking up and
down at my uniform, she asked, "Are you a cop?" "Yes", I answered and
continued writing the report. "My mother said if I ever needed help, I should
ask the police. Is that right?" Yes, that's right," I told her. "Well, then"
she said as she extended her foot toward me, "would you please tie my
shoe?"
6) POLICE # 2. It was the end of the day when I parked my police van in
front of the station. As I gathered my equipment, my K-9 partner, Jake, was
barking, and I saw a little boy staring in at me. "Is that a dog you got
back there?" he asked. "It sure is", I replied. Puzzled, the boy looked at
me and then towards the back of the van. Finally he said, "What'd he do?"
7) ELDERLY. While working for an organization that delivers lunches to
elderly shut-ins, I used to take my 4-year-old daughter on my afternoon
rounds. She was unfailingly intrigued by the various appliances of old age,
particularly the canes, walkers and wheelchairs. One day I found her staring
at a pair of false teeth soaking in a glass. As I braced myself for the
inevitable barrage of questions, she merely turned and whispered, "The tooth
Fairy will never believe this!"
8) DRESS-UP. A little girl was watching her parents dress for a party. When
she saw her dad donning his tuxedo, she warned, Daddy, you shouldnt wear
that suit. And why not, darling? You know that it always gives you a
head ache the next morning.
9) DEATH. While walking along the sidewalk in front of his church, our
minister heard the intoning of a prayer that nearly made his collar wilt.
Apparently, his 5-year-old son and his playmates had found a dead robin.
Feeling that proper burial should be performed, they had secured a small box
and cotton batting, then dug a hole and made ready for the disposal of the
deceased. The minister's son was chosen to say the appropriate prayers and
with sonorous dignity intoned his version of what he thought his father
always said, "Glory be unto the Father, and unto the Son, and into the hole
he goes." (I want this line used at my funeral!)
10) SCHOOL. A little girl had just finished her first week of school. "I'm
just wasting my time", she said to her mother. "I cant read, I cant write,
and they wont let me talk!"
11) BIBLE. A little boy opened the big family Bible. He was fascinated as he
fingered through the old pages. Suddenly, something fell out of the Bible.
He picked up the object and looked at it. What he saw was an old leaf that
had been pressed in between the pages. 'Mama, look what I found", the boy
called out. "What have you got there, dear?" With astonishment in the young
Boy's voice, he answered, "I think it's Adams underwear!"
