Jokes EtcRe: Read N Laff:- A Collection Of Hilarious Jokes by VanTee20(op): 10:52am On Jun 12, 2013
Akpos' next door neighbour had a baby.

Unfortunately, the little
baby was born without ears. When they
arrived home from
the hospital, the
parents invited Akpos' family to come over and
see their new baby.

Akpos' parents
were very sure their son would make silly comments about the
baby. So, Akpos'
dad decided to have a talk with Akpos before going to the neighbour's house.

He said, "Now, son,
that poor baby was born with no ears. I want you to be on your best
behaviour and not
say one word about his ears, or I'm really going
to beat the hell out of you when we come back home."

"OK Dad. I promise, I won't mention his ears
at all," replied Akpos.

At the neighbour's house, Akpos leaned over the
crib and touched the baby's
hand. He looked at the mother and said,

"Oh, what a
beautiful little
baby!"

The mother, who had braced herself
for Akpos' comment, was
pleasantly surprised and replied;

"Thank you very much, Akpos."

Akpos then
continued, "This baby has perfect little hands and perfect little feet. Why, just look at his pretty little eyes! Did his doctor say he can see clearly?"

The mother, who was a bit surprised by Akpos' question, replied;

"Yes ... his doctor said he has a good vision. Why do you ask?"

Akpos said, "Well,
it's a good thing, because i'm very sure he can't wear glasses. grin

The above post is an edited version of your last update. Looks different huh? Well the few differences lie in some edited words, punctuation and paragraphs.

I'm not saying I did a perfect job (I'm a learner too) but you'll admit that the edited post is more readable... Your story is interesting but you have to watch your use of punctuations, tenses and paragraphs, if you want your story to appeal to readers.

Btw, I saw my name on your honour roll, I feel so honoured, thanks cheesy cheesy...

immortalvoices: Continued now...

"So what department are you going into?" Vivian asked.

"Political science," I answered with a smile. "What about you?".

"Same."

"Wow," I said, as I looked directly into her eyes. I noticed a mischievous glint there.

After spending some time trying to locate the place, we met a good samaritan (student) who showed us the way.

"Megwo," I greeted the man we met in the office, who I later discovered to be one of our lecturers named Mr. Benedict. (Megwo is a form of greeting in uhrobo dialect)

I was screened successfully and I went outside to wait for her. Not long afterwards, she came out together with the lecturer smiling.

"Kevin, let's go, I'm hungry," She said to me. I felt this sudden rush of jealousy in me, maybe it was because of the way they were smiling at each other.

...wait o dis one na lecturer na, wetin make am dey shine teeth wit dis babe and dem jus meet for d first time o...

"Hmmm all dis lecturer no dey take eye see fine girl o" I muttered to myself.

"Are you through with your screening?" I managed to ask her, for I was already getting tensed and angry.

She laughed out softly and replied "no".

"Like seriously, you dey behave like possess child o," I nearly said.

"I'm not in your department, Kelvin" she said.

"What?" I couldn't believe my ears, I became confused, with so many questions running through my mind.

Just then her phone rang out in her purse and she quickly fished it out.

"Hello... Who's speaking?.... Oh! Ok sir... ermm yes sir...I will save d number sir."

...your guess is as good as mine... it'sTHE LECTURER...

So many questions, no anwers, I need answers fast, hmmm we all need answers fast....

Be a Man of your words bro. Nor dey give us false hopes na. Its not befitting.
[s]BTW, I don tire for you excuse of flat battery, busy etc.[/s]
To each, his own. Others wrote their story, I'm writing mine. I don't believe in rushing to finish my story because someone finished his... Don't forget that this is my debut work, I'm still a learner.

You are talking as if I'm happy with my story being dormant or unupdated. See, writing this piece doesn't do anything for me in real life, I have to hustle everyday to make ends meet.

I know you guys deserve better but you have to realise that I'm trying the best I can, in my current situation. I can only promise that my next work will be better planned, updated faster and more interesting.

Thanks sad.

EPISODE 17

A gentle tap on my shoulder brought me back to consciousness early in the next morning.

'Wake up, Athanasius. It's morning already,' A voice, which my brain interpreted to be Hector's sang, in my ears.

'Seriously?'

'Do I sound like I'm joking?' he quizzed. 'Get your lazy a's's out of bed now and let's get going.

I yawned, rather loudly. My brain was foggy and my sight blurry.

'Ok. What about the others?'

'I don't know about them. Maybe they'll join us there later,' Hector replied.

'Alright then. Go and wait outside, I'll join you soon.'

'Good,' Hector muttered as he left the room hurriedly.

I sat up on the bed and let out a loud hiss.

... Why is God treating me like dis na? I've been praying to him since my first day here to deliver me from....

'Athanasius!' Hector shouted from outside, thereby intruding my train of thoughts.

'Coming!' I shouted back, as I quickly straighted my wrinkled, once white school shirt which now looked like it had been washed in sand.

After that, I raced out of the room with the speed of lightning to meet Hector outside.

* * * * * * * * * *

I got outside to meet Hector and Fabianus in the middle of a discussion.

'Good morning Fabianus,' I greeted.

'Good morning Boss,' he said cheerily.

'Who are you kidding? You are the boss around here jor,' I said with a chuckle.

'No, the gods have chosen you to be the boss. Now the time has come for you to fulfill your destiny by saving our people from the wrath of Justus,' he explained. 'Do you still remember what I told you yesterday?'

'Of course. I do.'

'Good,' he replied. 'Now take this,' he said as he handed me a rolled up piece of paper.

'What's this?'

'It's a map. The map of the route you will take to the black cave where Zygus, the dragon dwells.'

'What do we need map for again? I thought you said the cave is over there,' I said, pointing towards the huge mountain that stood some two hundred metres away from us.

'Yeah. I said that, but I think travelling on land is risky,' he opined. 'Like I was telling before you came around, you guys might be spotted by the dragon or even Justus' men before you get to your destination.'

'What do you have in mind then?' Hector asked.

'Simple. You'll use the tunnel.'

'Tunnel again? Oh no! Please tell it's not like that one we used the other time,' I whined.

'No, it's not,' Fabianus told me. 'I swear by the relics of the saints, this one is clean and clear.'

'Fine. When will you guys join us at the cave?' Hector asked.

'In little time,' Fabianus answered.

Hector then turned to me and said;

'Let's go and show that dragon the stuffs we are made of.'

I didn't answer him. I was doing something else, I was staring fixedly at Fabianus.

'What is wrong?' he (Fabianus) asked.

'I know you have the powers to see the future,' I said cooly. 'Please tell us what the outcome of our battle with Zygus will be.'

Fabianus suddenly went still as if he had been electrocuted. He stood rooted to the spot for several moments with his eyes held firmly shut and jaws clenched.

'What is going on here?' I asked Hector.

'He has entered a trance. He will tell us what he saw when he's back,' Hector explained.

Some moments later, Fabianus' lips started moving slowly as if he was muttering some words. This continued until he suddenly opened his eyes and broke into a smile.

'What did you see? Tell us,' I said, not even bothering to hide the excitement in my voice.

'If I tell you something n
ow, my gods at the top might go and do another thing,' he said, while pointing up to the sky to emphasize his point. 'Just believe that your destiny is in your hands.'

I nodded dumbly, my disappointment boldly writ on my face. I had expected him to assure of victory but I was disappointed.

'Alright then. Hector, let's get going,' I said.

'Go in peace, sirs. May the gods grant you victory over Zygus,' he prayed. 'Make sure you don't spend too much time in that tunnel though.'

'Why?' I asked with a sixth sense telling me that bad news was on the way.

'Ummm... The fairies must not meet you there.'

... Whaaaaaaat? shocked...
