During English class, the teacher asks Little Johnny, “Have you ever heard of the word contagious before?”  


 
“Of course, miss,” Johnny replies, “my father actually said it when we were talking yesterday”.

 

“Can you repeat it for the class and tell us how he used it in a sentence?”  


 
“Yes, miss. We were watching the neighbor take his garbage out when his bin tipped over spilling rubbish all over the driveway, dad said ‘it’s going to take the contagious to pick all that up’.”
