Doo The Math

An actual conversation when five of us drove home from celebrating Nicole’s Dean’s List achievement. (Pizza and iPod.)

Jeb: “Kelly, did you go on poop patrol?”

Kelly: “Yes. I picked up 18 poops.”

Jeb: “That’s not divisible by four.” (I pay a quarter per, so I like it when the number is divisible by four.)

Kelly: “No, so that’s $4.50.”

Jeb: “I’ll give you $5.00 and you can give me fifty cents.”

Kelly: “OK… you know I’ve noticed every time we do poop patrol, it always is an even number.”

Jeb: “That’s interesting. I think you are right.”

(Pause.)

Kathy: “Well we do have two dogs.”

(Much laughter.)

Congratulations to Nicole!

  1. Hey, Jeb – why didn’t you ever take me out for pizza when I made Dean’s List?

    (Guess the fact that I never made Dean’s list might have something to do with it…)

  2. I thought twice about spelling it doo or dooh. But your suggestion of “do” is incorrect. I was misled thinking that Winnie-The-Pooh has an “h”. Neither dooh nor doo is a word on http://www.m-w.com. However, since doo-doo is, I’ll correct the spelling to doo. See also DogDoo.com.
