JOKES/RIDDLES
1) Q: Where were lemons first found?
2) Q: What gets wet the more you dry?
3) Q: What occurs 4 times in every week, 2 times in every month, & once in a year?
4) Q: Why did the girl turn in her math book?
5) Q: What occurs once in a minute, twice in a moment but never in a day?
6) Birds, beasts, trees, flowers; Gnaws iron bites steel; Grinds hard stones to meal; Slays king ruins town . And beats high mountain down. What am I?
7) I can sizzle like bacon,
I am made with an egg,
I have plenty of backbone, but lack a good leg,
I peel layers like onions, but still remain whole,
I can be long, like a flagpole, yet fit in a hole,
What am I?
8) What year in this century is the same when its number is turned upside down?
9) What always runs but never walks, often murmurs, never talks, has a bed but never sleeps, has a mouth but never eats?
10) The one who makes it, sells it. The one who buys it, never uses it. The one that uses it never knows that he's using it. What is it?

IN TEN YEARS
In ten years I will still be living in Michigan and will either be going to Western Michigan University or Michigan State University College. I will be in college for eight years so then I can get a masters degree. I will be twenty-four years old and my two old sisters will be thirty and my little sister and brothers will be twenty-one, seventeen, and twelve.
I will be working at a good place that pays well. I will be living in my own house and will have a 2008 ford mustang in my garage. My job will be my own business and I will be making homemade jumps for bikes, skateboards, scooters, and dirt bikes. And my cousin will be helping because we came up with the idea and I think it would be fun because I always liked to build ramps.
I will have one pet dog and will have a 50 inch plasma TV. I will still have a small house but it would be good enough for me and I will have a skate park in my back yard that I will make. My house will be really cool and will be getting paid well.
I will travel around the world every summer and visit somewhere different each week and I will go everywhere in the world before I die. I will be doing all my school work before anything so then I can get it done and have fun after and I will study for all my test after school if I have any coming up
I will also draw comics or something because I like to draw and make stuff that people like and think is funny and cool. And I might make picture books to for little kids so then they don’t have to read when there 2 or 3.
