Missed Period

A Junior School class were given a homework assignment to discover something really exciting and tell the class about it the next day.

The next day little Johnny walked up to the front of the class, picked up a piece of chalk and made a small white mark on the blackboard.

"What's that you've drawn? asked the teacher in puzzlement.

"It's a period, miss" said little Johnny.

"Well, I can see that," replied the teacher, "but what's so exciting about a period?"

"I don't know," said Johnny, "but this morning my sister was missing one, My Dad had a heart attack, My Mum fainted, and the man next door shot himself."
