Overheard by a ten year old....(may I never have this conversation with my kid!!!)

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 $80,000 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 I heard you telling mom you were pulling
out. Then I heard her tell you to wait because she was coming
too. I'll be damned if I'm staying here by myself with an $80,000
mortgage and no bike!
