It Makes a Certain Kind of Sense

Category: Kids & School

A grandmother was pushing her little grandchild around a store in a buggy. Each time she put something in the basket she would say, "And here's something for you, Diploma!" or "This will make a cute little outfit for you, Diploma!" and so on.

Eventually a bewildered shopper who'd heard all this finally asked, "Is her name really Diploma?"

"Well, no," grandma said. "Not really.

"Then why do you keep calling her that?"

The grandmother replied, "I sent my daughter to Virginia Tech and this is all she came home with!"
