WEEK 299
The zoo keeper stood by the front gate, scratching his head and wondering why...

...all of the giant frogs were in the bus with the school children. Stepping over to the bus, he walked right around it looking in the windows as he walked. Sure enough, every seat had one child in it and beside each child sat one of the zoo's giant frogs.

He saw the teacher approaching and asked, "Why are the zoo frogs in the bus with the children?"

"Oh," said the teacher, "I guess the bus driver told them all to 'hop on'!"

...was everyone running out of the zoo? It was pure panic. People were pushing and shoving each other. They were screaming, they couldn't get out fast enough.

Finally, there wasn't a single customer left in the zoo. What happened? There was nobody left to ask. The zoo workers were puzzled--there was nothing to be afraid of--was there?

Wait a minute what was the zoo keeper looking at?

He was looking up at a new sign that had just been installed. He was laughing hysterically. All the workers joined in on the laugh as they read the sign.

TARANTULA EXHIBIT - LEFT
OPEN
by Ronald Brunsky, USA

...less than half the people who went in that day had left the zoo five hours after it closed.

And why are most of the animals having stomach problems this evening? The zoo keeper had never heard such animal burping in his fifty years as a zoo keeper.
