Potential and Reality

"Potential and Reality"

A kid comes home from school with a writing assignment.
He asks his father for help. "Dad, can you tell me the
difference between potential and reality?"

His father looks up, thoughtfully, and then says, "I'll display
it to you.

Go ask your mother if she would sleep with Brad Pitt for
a million dollars.

Next, ask your sister if she would sleep with Brad Pitt for
a million dollars. Then go ask your brother if he would
sleep with Brad Pitt for a million dollars. Then come back
and tell me what you've learned."

The kid is puzzled, but he decides to see if he can figure
out what his father means. He asks his mother, "Mom,
if someone gave you a million dollars would you sleep
with Brad Pitt?" His mother looks around slyly, and then
with a little smile on her face says, "Don't tell your father,
but yes, I would."

Then he goes to his sisters room and asks her, "Sis,
if someone gave you a million dollars, would you sleep
with Brad Pitt?" His sister looks up and says, "OMG!
Definitely!"

Then he goes to his brothers room and asks him, "Hey
bro, if someone gave you a million dollars, would you
sleep with Brad Pitt?" His brother thinks about it and
says, "For a million bucks, I suppose I would."

The kid goes back to his father and says, "Dad, I think
I've figured it out. Potentially, we are sitting on three
millions bucks, but in reality, we are living with two
sluts and one gay."
