A teacher says to her class one morning, "Today we're going to use the word contagious in a sentence. Who wants to go first?"
Jenny in the front row stand up and says, "My father said the new strain of 'flu is very contagious."
"Very good, Jenny," said the teacher. "Next?"
Sally in the second row stands up and says, "I've heard that chicken pox is very contagious."
"Well done, Sally. Anyone else?"
Little Johnny in the back stands up and says, "Last week my dad and me went for a walk and we saw a little old man painting a really big house with a small paintbrush."
"And?" asked the teacher.
"And my dad said, 'that will take the old contagious!'"
