Gifted kids like puns A chicken crossing the road is poultry in motion. No matter how much you push the envelope it will still be stationary. Time flies like an arrow. Fruit flies like a banana. The short fortune teller who escaped from prison was a small medium, at large. The butcher backed into the meat grinder and got a little behind in his work.
