Mrs. Jensen answered her door and discovered two police officers standing on her porch. Jeremy, her 5 year old, was with them. Mrs. Jenson was shocked. “What’s going on? Jeremy is supposed to be in school!â€
“Yes ma’am,†Sergeant Friday said. “He ran away during nap time. We could cite him for resisting a rest.â€

Yeah, I know it’s an old one-liner. I just put it into my own story to make you all GROAN! Did it work?
More shake my head and rap it on the table.
Once again Dr John would be proud. Did you hear my groan from here? Good one. Happy Friday.
Thom — you know, one of the reasons I enjoyed Dr. John so much is because I already enjoyed doing this kind of corny stuff.
A definite groan there 😉
Tony — you need Milk of Magnesia?
Well, groaner it may be, but all too clever!!
My 55 is a double whammy this week, two for the price of one. Of course, as always, you need to scroll down below my Friday’s Show n Tell.
The link is HERE I’d love to have you stop by for a visit.
Hootin’ Anni — thanks!
Oh groan . . . absolutely perfect!
Kelley — thanks.
hehe. wonder what the sentence is on that…lol. funny 55. hope you have a wonderful weekend.

Brian — most likely he was sentenced to an hour in bed.
A Groan, but a Good Groan. Like Thom said, Dr John would enjoy this one.
Thank you, Bill.
That’s great!
Linda — I stole and old line and reworked it.
Too funny! My 5-year-old is bound to get in trouble with the law, then!
Lizzi — the mommy law only, I hope!
Are you channeling Dr. John Quilly? LOL
He’d be so pleased. 🙂
Akelamalu — I was doing this stuff before I met Dr. John. Honest.
Jeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeez………
Terrible Quilly…
But Thats The Idea so….
Excellent 55 My Dear.
Thank You for playing Today Baby…You Rock!
Have a Kick Ass Week-End…..G
G-Man — when it comes to puns, “terrible” is high praise!
Ahhhh, I’ll love telling this to my daughter later — she loves jokes.
So cute, Quilly — thanks!
xo
Jannie — I am glad I supplied you and your daughter with a reason to smile.
LOL. Excellent groaner. I should have seen it coming.
Alice — you probably should have since I stole the punch from a one-liner.
I’ve had police officers bring home a young child (I think he was 7yo), but it was for playing in an open desert area closer to a main road than to our house.
“resisting a rest” ROTFL!!
Karen — I read about that on your blog.
Yep, it did! LOL! A former pastor once said maturity is knowing when you need a nap and taking one.
Barbara – -oh, goody! Then I am all grown up!
Funny groaner! I love these.
Patti – -thanks, I am glad to entertain.
Groaner for sure. But cool. My 55 is HERE .
Monkey Man — thanks, glad you liked it.
Groan? YES! But you’ll never catch ME in that crime!
Melli — me, either these days. I need a nap, I take a nap!
