From the geography teacher, Mr. Poop:
7th Grade Student: Mr. Poop, how did a turtle paint the Sistine Chapel?
Mr.Poop: What?
7th Grade Student: They said he had to lay on his back to paint it. That kills a turtle.
Mr. Poop: No it doesn't and a turtle didn't paint the Sistine Chapel. It was Michelangelo.
7th Grade Student: Well why did his parents name him after a Ninja Turtle?

An Ocean of Knowledge
My class watches a current events news show on Fridays. This particular segment dealt with the disaster in Japan. The reporter showed how a particular aircraft carrier was using water from the sea, through a sprinkler system, to hose down the ship. This happened next:
7th Grade Student: Mr. H, where do they get the water to run those sprinklers?
Mr. H: Well, they're in the ocean, so they probably suck it up from there.
7th Grade Student: But what do they do if the suck up all the water?
Mr. H: What?
7th Grade Student: Mr. H, where do they get the water to run those sprinklers?
Mr. H: Well, they're in the ocean, so they probably suck it up from there.
7th Grade Student: But what do they do if the suck up all the water?
Mr. H: What?

Color Blind
Another story from the Mr. Poop files:
7th Grade Student: If you color blind, you can't see colors.
Mr. Poop: That's right...what does that have anything to do with this?
Student: You can still see numbers if you're color blind.
Mr. Poop: Even if the numbers are colored?
Student: Yup, color don't matter.
