A kindergarden teacher was playing a game with her class.  "Now
kids," she started, "I am going to hide something behind my back
and I will give you clues.  I want you to guess what I am
hiding."

She takes the first object and hides it behind her back, "Now
what I have is round but not too round and it's orange but not
too orange.  Can anybody tell me what it is?"

Little Suzie raises her hand and asks, "Is it an orange?"

"No," says the teacher, "it's a tangerine, but you're thinking
and I like that."

She then hides another object and says, "Now what I have is red
but not too red, and it's round too but not too round.  Can
anybody tell me what it is?"

Little Rachel raises her hand and asks, "Is it an apple?"

"No," says the teacher, "it's a tomato, but you're thinking and I
like that."

Little Billy can't resist and raises his hand,  "Can I play?
Please let me hide something,  PLEASE."

The teacher says that he can try so he takes his hand and reaches
way down deep in his pocket.

"Now what I have is long but not too long and it's got a pink tip
but not too pink," grins Billy broadly.

The teachers face turns three shades of red and she screams,
"Billy sit down this instant. I am going to call your mother."

Billy just smiles and pulls his hand out of his pocket.  "It's a
pencil, but you're thinking and I like that."
