Letter from Tooth Fairy


Sorry, but due to the massive quantity of children loosing teeth, we have to resort to a form letter, please forgive.

Dear____________

Thank you for leaving one (1) tooth under your pillow last night.
While we make every attempt to leave a monetary reward in the case of lost or stolen children's teeth, we were unable to process your request for the following reason(s) indicated below:

the tooth could not be found
it was not a human tooth
we do not think that pieces of chicken bone are very funny
we were unable to approach the tooth due to excessive odour
the tooth has previously been redeemed for cash
the tooth did not originally belong to you
the tooth fairy does not process fingernails
your request has been forwarded to the Nerve Ending Fairy for appropriate action
you were overheard to state that you do not believe in the Tooth Fairy
you are age 12 or older at the time your request was received
the tooth is still in your mouth
the tooth was guarded by a vicious fairy-eating dog at the time of our visit
no night light was on at the time of our visit
the snacks provided for the Tooth Fairy were not satisfactory, or were missing
we discovered evidence of unsafe tooth extraction as follows:
string
pliers
gunpowder
hammer marks
chisel
part of skull attached to tooth
no dental care
other

Thank you for your request, and we look forward to serving you in the future.

Sincerely,

The Tooth Fairy

A ROUND TUIT Write or type this verse and using a small wooden circle, stiff cardboard, poker chip, etc., with Tuit written on it. Glue both to a card or put into snack bag.

The faucet that leaks,
The hinge that squeaks.
The crack in the door,
The hole in the floor.
You said you'd do it,
Just as soon as you could
get around to it.

Now the round tuit is here,
So my friend never fear,
You'll have all the time to do it,
Since from this day you can't get
away with the excuse,
WHEN I GET A ROUND TUIT.

AND ANOTHER VERSION:

THIS IS A TUIT Guard if with you life, as TUITS are hard to come by, expecially the round ones. This is an indispensable item. It will help you become a more efficient worker. For years we have heard people say, "I'll do it as soon as I get a ROUND TUIT." Now that you have one, you can accomplish all those things you put aside until you got a ROUND TUIT





The HUG

No moving parts, no batteries.
No monthly payments and no fees.
Inflation proof, non-taxable,
In fact, it's quite relaxable.
It can't be stolen, won't pollute,
One size fits all, do not dilute.
It uses little energy,
But yields results enormously.
Relieves your tension and your stress,
Invigorates your happiness.
Combats depression, makes you beam,
And elevates your self esteem!
Your circulation it corrects,
Without unpleasant side effects.
It is, I think, the perfect drug,
May I prescribe, my friend...
The Hug!
(and, of course, fully returnable)
