His Birthday Request

One day little Johnny went to his father, and asked him if he could buy him a $200 bicycle for his birthday.

Johnny’s father said, “Johnny, we have a $80,000 mortgage on the house, and you want me to buy you a bicycle? Wait until Christmas.”

Christmas came around, and Johnny asked again.

The father said, “Well, the mortgage is still extremely high, sorry about that … Ask me again some other time.”

Well, about 2 days later, the boy was seen walking out of the house with all his belongings in a suitcase.

The father felt sorry for him, and asked him why he was leaving.

The boy said, “Yesterday I was walking past your room, and I heard you say that you were pulling out, and mommy said that you should wait because she was coming too, and I’ll be DAMNED if I get stuck with a $80,000 mortgage!”
