It's a Frickin' Elephant

Out of the mouths of Babes. We who have taught, or love children who have been taught, know this is funny! From the diary of a Pre-School Teacher:

My five-year old students are learning to read. Yesterday one of them pointed at a picture in a zoo book and said,

"Look at this! It's a frickin' elephant!"

I took a deep breath, then asked...

"What did you call it?"

 And he says...

"It's a frickin' elephant! It says so on the picture!"

And so it does...

"A f r i c a n Elephant"

Hooked on phonics! Ain't it wonderful? 
Now that's funny, I don't care who you are!
