Little Zachary, a Jewish kid, was doing very badly in math. His
parents had tried everything: tutors, mentors, flash cards, special
learning centers, in short, everything they could think of to help his
math.
Finally, in a last ditch effort, they took Zachary down and enrolled
him in the local Catholic school.
After the first day, little Zachary came home with a very serious look
on his face. He didn't even kiss his mother hello. Instead, he went
straight to his room and started studying. His mother was amazed. This
went on for some time, day after day while the mother tried to
understand what made all the difference.
Finally, little Zachary brought home his report card. He quietly laid
it on the table, went up to his room, and hit the books. With great
trepidation, his Mom looked at it, and to her great surprise, little
Zachary got an "A" in math. She could no longer hold her curiosity.
She went to his room and said: "Son, what was it? Was it the nuns?"
Little Zachary looked at her and shook his head, no.
"Well, then," she replied, "Was it the books, the discipline, the
structure, the uniforms? WHAT was it?"
Little Zachary looked at her and said, "Well, on the first day of
school, when I saw that guy nailed to the plus sign, I knew they
weren't fucking around.......
