On a special Teacher's Day, a kindergarten teacher was receiving gifts
from her pupils.
     The florist's son handed her a gift.  She shook it, held it over her
head, and said, "I bet I know what it is....some flowers."  "That's
 right!" said the boy.  "But how did you know?"  "Just a wild guess,"  she
said.
     The next pupil was the candy store owner's daughter.  The teacher held
her gift overhead, shook it, and said, "I bet I can guess what it  is...a
box of candy."  "That's right! But how did you know?" asked the girl.  "Just
a lucky guess," said the teacher.
     The next gift was from the liquor store owner's son.  The teacher held
it over her head but it was leaking.  She touched a drop of the
 leakage with her finger and tasted it.  "Is it wine?" she asked.  "No," the
boy replied.  The teacher repeated the process, touching
 another drop of the leakage to her tongue.  "Is it champagne?" she  asked.
"No," the boy replied.  The teacher then said, "I give up,
 what is it?"  The boy replied, "A puppy!"
