judge gave the man ten years for the {crime?} that he had committed
and the man started laughing and told the judge, "Oh! Your Honor,
I can do that standing on my head," so the judge said "Oh! Well,
here is ten more years to get you back on your feet again."

We've thought and said and done;
We cannot hide them from the lord
He known them, everyone.

Childern (Children's) Game (River Rat)
Lay a small rug in the middle of the room for a river. Or draw two
chalk lines on the floor to mark the sides of the river. Choose
one person to be the watcher. Have everyone line up on one side of
the river. Start the music and have everyone march across the
river. Stop the music. Anyone standing in the river is the river
rat. He steps out of the line and watches for other river rats who
get caught in the river. Boys and girls can play this game,
preferably ages 5 to 10.
