Little Johnny and Jenny were only 10 years old, but they knew they were in love. One day they decided that they wanted to get married, so Johnny went to Jenny's father to ask him for her hand. Johnny bravely walked up to him and said, "Mr. Smith, me and Jenny are in love and I want to ask you for her hand in marriage." Thinking that this was just the cutest thing, Mr. Smith replied, "Well Johnny, you are only ten. Where will you two live?" Without even taking a moment to think about it, Johnny replied, "In Jenny's room. It's bigger than mine and we can both fit there nicely." Mr. Smith said with a huge grin, "Okay, then how will you live? You're not old enough to get a job. You'll need to support Jenny." Again, Johnny instantly replied, "Our allowance, Jenny makes five bucks a week. And I make 10 bucks a week. That's about 60 bucks a month, so that should do us just fine." v Mr. Smith was impressed by how much thought Johnny had put into this. "Well Johnny, it seems like you have everything figured out. I just have one more question. What will you do if the two of you should have little children of your own?" Johnny just shrugged his shoulders and said, "Well, we've been lucky so far." And now Mr. Smith no longer thinks little Johnny is so cute. |
