HEAL THYSELF WITH LAUGHS

GOOD MORNING: NICE WAY TO START YOUR DAY:

An East Legon girl was with her no nonsense father when he saw her boyfriend coming.
GIRL: Have you come to collect your book titled "DADDY IS HOME?" by Ayi Kwei Armah.
BOY: No, I want the the photocopy from the Methodist Hymn Book song called "WHERE SHOULD I WAIT FOR YOU?"
GIRL: I don't have that one... may be you should take the other one "UNDER THE MANGO TREE" by Efua Sutherland.
BOY: Fine, but don't forget to bring "I WILL CALL YOU IN 15 MINS" while coming to school...
GIRL: I will also bring this one too, "I WON'T LET YOU DOWN" by Ama Ata Aidoo.
Then;
DAD: These are too many books, will he read all of them?
GIRL: Yes dad, he is very smart.
DAD: Okay, don't forget to give him the one on the table titled, "I AM NOT STUPID, I UNDERSTOOD EVERYTHING YOU'VE BEEN SAYING" by Shakespeare! And also the one on the dining titled "IF YOU GET PREGNANT PREPARE TO GET MARRIED" by Chinua Achebe
