So I heard a funny story...

So my friend told me a funny story that happened to her sister...
This was the event that led to her sister insisting she change schools, and her parents agreeing... One day her sister took a note to school to request that she be excused for a day so that her parents could take her to see HH the Dalai Lama (ah memories!). In the inexorable way of schools, this of course got out.. and when she boarded the bus that afternoon she was the butt of much unfunny mirth and teasing. Just as the teasing had died down, a young boy pipes up from the front of the bus... what is a Dalai Lama anyway? And the "Cool Kid" (remember them?) ringleader of the angst invoking teasing responds, with great authority and confidence...
"Its a kind of Camel, dummy".
:-)
I love laughing....
