Don't ask what green roses are!

A kid named Johnny is walking to school when he notices two girls talking about green roses. Johnny wants to find out what green roses are, so he followed them, but lost them. He was late for class and the teacher says, "Johnny, why were you late for class?"
Johnny says, "I was following these two girls and they were talking about green roses, I wanted to find out what green roses were, but never did. Teacher, what are green roses?"

The teacher is furious. "That's it, go to the principle's office!"

So Johnny goes to the principles office. The principle looks at him and says, "Johnny, why did your teacher send you here?"
Johnny says, "I was following these two girls and they were talking about green roses, I wanted to find out what green roses were, but never did. When I was late for class I told my teacher why I was late and asked her what green roses were, then she sent me to you. Principle, what are green roses?"

The principle is so mad that he says, "That's it! I never want to see your face in this school EVER again! You are not only expelled from this school, but every school in the country!!"

So Johnny goes home and his mom asks him, "Johnny, why are you home?"

Johnny says, "I was following these two girls and they were talking about green roses, I wanted to find out what green roses were, but never did, I told my teacher why I was late, she sent me to the principle's office and when I asked him what green roses were, he expelled me from every school in the country. Mom, what are green roses?"

His mom almost passes out and says, "That's it! Go up stairs and wait for your father to get home!"

A couple of hours later, Johnny's father gets home and talks to Johnny. "Son, why did your mom send me up here to talk to you?"

"Well, I was following these two girls and they were talking about green roses, I wanted to find out what green roses were, but never did, I told my teacher why I was late, she sent me to the principle's office, he expelled me from every school in the country, and when I asked mom what green roses were, she sent me up here to wait for you. Dad, what are green roses?"

His dad almost has a heart attack. "That's it! I never want to see you again! Never step foot into this house again. As far as I'm concerned, I have no son!"

20 years later of living in the woods in a box, Johnny is in a bar crying.

The bartender notices him crying and asks, "Why are you crying? You can tell me anything."

"Well, 20 years ago, I was following these two girls and they were talking about green roses, I wanted to find out what green roses were, but never did, I told my teacher why I was late, she sent me to the principle's office, he expelled me from every school in the country, I told my mom and she sent me up here to wait for Dad, and when I asked him what green roses were, he disowned me as his son. I've been living in a card board box for 20 years, and I still don't know what green roses are! Bartender, what are green roses?"

The bartender takes out his shotgun and points it at Johnny.
"Get outta my bar you scum bag! You are banned from this bar and if I EVER see you here again, I will not hesitate to shoot you in the face!!!"

So Johnny leaves the bar. He's so upset that he doesn't see the truck while he's crossing the street. -BAM!- Kills him instantly.





What is the moral of this story?

(First one to get it, gets a beer!)

look both ways before crossing the street
