Got a joke too good to keep to yourself? This is where to put it. While all the other Campfires are expected to be reasonably 'serious' in nature, this is where we let our hair down.

Here's an email I got, sometimes kids just crack me up.

A first grade teacher presented each child in her class the first half of a well known proverb and asked them to come up with the remainder of the proverb. It's hard to believe these were actually done by first graders. Their insight may surprise you. While reading these keep in mind that these are first-graders, 6-year-olds!
1. Don't change horses............................until they stop running.
2. Strike while the......................... ..........bug is close.
3. It's always darkest before.....................Daylight Saving Time.
4. Never underestimate the power of ....... termites.
5. You can lead a horse to water but ........ how?
6. Don't bite the hand that ...................... looks dirty.
7. No news is........................ impossible.
8. A miss is as good as a......................... Mr.
9. You can't teach an old dog new ............ maths.
10. If you lie down with dogs, you'll ...........stink in the morning.
11. The pen is mightier than the ................ pigs.
12. Where there's smoke there's .............. pollution.
13. Happy is the bride who...........................gets all the presents.
14. A penny saved is ...............................not much.
15. Two's company, three's ..................... the Musketeers.
16. Don't put off till tomorrow what ......... you put on to go to bed.
17. Laugh and the whole world laughs with you, cry.......... and
you have to blow your nose.
18. Children should be seen and not ..........spanked or grounded.
19. If at first you don't succeed ................ get new batteries.
20. You get out of something only what you ....... see in the
picture on the box.
21. When the blind lead the blind ............. get out of the way.

And the WINNER and last one:
22. Better late than ..................................pregnant.
