There was this guy who had just gotten a new job as a school bus driver for elementary school children. He thought it would be nice to paint the school bus with characters from Sesame Street. So, he painted Bert and Ernie, Big Bird, the Count, Cookie Monster, Oscar, Grover, Elmo, and a couple of other characters. When finished, he stepped back and admired his work.
It was his first day on the job, and he was looking forward to getting started and meeting the kids. At his first stop, there was a very overweight little girl. He opened the door and said, “Hi, I’m the new bus driver. What’s your name?” The girl said her name was Pattie.
Waiting at the next stop was another overweight little girl. He said, “Hi, I’m the new bus driver. What’s your name?” She said her name was Pattie too.
At the next stop, there was a grown woman and a little boy. The bus driver said, “Hi, I’m the new bus driver. What’s your name?” The woman piped up and said, “His name is Ross, and he’s my son.” She continued, “He’s very, very special, so I want you to take extra good care of him.” The bus driver replied, “No problem. He can have the seat right behind me, and I can keep an eye on him in the mirror.”
At the next stop, there was a little country boy standing there. The boy was wearing tattered overalls and had no shoes or socks on his feet. The poor little boy had trouble walking because of bunions all over his feet. The bus driver said, “Hi, I’m the new bus driver. What’s your name?” The little boy replied, “My name is Lester Cleese.” Well, little Lester picked at his bunions all the way to the schoolhouse, nearly driving the driver crazy.
Later that night, at home, his wife asked him how his first day on the new job was.
The man replied, “Well, I had two obese Patties, special Ross, and Lester Cleese picking bunions on a Sesame Street bus.”
