Bike

"Bike"

For his birthday, little Patrick asked for a
10-speed bicycle. His father said,"Son,
we'd give you one, but the mortgage on
this house is $280,000 and your mother
just lost her job. There's no way we can
afford it."

The next day the father saw little Patrick
heading out the front door with a suitcase.
So he asked, "Son, where are you going?"

Little Patrick told him, "I was walking past
your room last night and heard you tell
Mom you were pulling out. Then I heard
her tell you to wait because she was coming
too. And I'll be damned if I'm staying here by
myself with a $280,000 mortgage and no bike."
