Marty's Joke of the Day

Marty's Joke of the day is an internet column that I've written for more than 5 years.
I tell humorous stories about my "sweet wife" and raising our 4 young sons, named #1, #2, #3, and #4.
After 5 years of story telling, in August of 2005, doctors found a brain tumor in son #4.
Our focus here has changed little as we still try to find humor in our lives.

11/10 - To nose pop, or not to nose pop. That is the question

Son #2 is generally a pretty easy going guy. He and his younger
brother, son #3, get in to it once in awhile, but it’s never come
to blows. Plus, son #2 usually likes to stick up for the little
guys. Which is why the call on the answering machine today from
school, was a little worrisome.

“Hello? This is so-and-so from school. We, uh, had an incident
today on the playground.”

[Oh boy. I’m thinking, uh oh. Here comes a suspension.]

“Son #2 and Joseph...”
[Joseph is one of son #2’s best friends. He’s a slight kid, and
consequently gets picked on.]
“...were playing at recess. Another kid started chasing and
teasing Joseph. Son #2 grabbed the boy from behind and wanted to
ask him why he was chasing Joseph. The other boy bit son #2 on the
hand...”

When I heard the message and that son #2 was defending this little
kid I asked him, “Did you turn around and pop the other kid on the
nose?”

Son #2 said, “No dad. You might have done that, but not me.”

Ouch... ya learn something from your kids every day.

No suspensions for son #2, but the teacher said that they had
called in the parents of the other boy. And would talk to them yet
again.

For those of you who get this as email...
Enjoy today’s Jokes!
