Joke for Monday

[lauralynne]

A woman walks into the downtown welfare office, trailed by 15
kids.

'WOW!' the social worker exclaims. 'Are they all yours?''

'Yep, they are all mine,' the flustered momma sighs, having
heard that question a thousand times before.

She says, 'Sit down Leroy.' All the children rush to find seats.

'Well,' says the social worker, 'then you must be here to sign
up. I'll need all your children's names.'

'Well, to keep it simple, the boys are all named 'Leroy' and the
girls are all named 'Leighroy'.'

In disbelief, the case worker. 'Are you serious? They're ALL
named Leroy?'

Their momma replied, 'Well, yes-it makes it easier. When it's
time to get them out of bed and ready for school, I yell, 'Leroy!' An when it's
time for dinner, I just yell 'Leroy!' an they all comes a runnin. An' if I need
to stop the kid who's running into the street, I just yell Leroy' and all of
them stop. It's the smartest idea I ever had, namin' them all Leroy.'


The social worker thinks this over for a bit, then wrinkles her
forehead and says tentatively, 'But what if you just want ONE kid to come, and
not the whole bunch?'

'Then I call them by their last names.'
