Pages:  1  2  

Prepare by obtaining a small cloth bag and fill it with 8 to 12 pounds of sand. Soak it thoroughly in water. At 8:00 p.m. begin to waltz and hum with the bag until 9:00 p.m.. Lay down your bag and set your alarm for 10:00 p.m.. Get up, pick up your bag, and sing every song you have ever heard. Make up about a dozen more and sing these too, until 4:00 a.m.. Set alarm for 5:00 a.m.. Get up and make breakfast. Keep this up for 5 years. Look cheerful.

The Physical Test (Women):
Obtain a large beanbag chair and attach it to the front of your clothes. Leave it there for 9 months. Now remove 10 of the beans.

The Physical Test (Men):
Go to the nearest drug store. Set your wallet on the counter. Ask the clerk to help himself. Now proceed to the nearest food store. Go to the head office and arrange for your paycheck to be directly deposited to the store.

Purchase a newspaper. Go home and read it quietly for the last time.

Final Assignment:
Find a couple who already has a small child. Lecture them on how they can improve their discipline, patience, tolerance, toilet training and child's table manners.

Suggest many ways they can improve. Emphasize to them that they should never allow their children to run a riot. Enjoy this experience. It will be the last time you will have all the answers.
