THIS WAS VOTED BEST SHORT JOKE OF 2006 For his birthday, little Joseph >asked for a 10-speed bicycle . His father said, 'Son, we'd give you one, >but the mortgage on this house is $280,000 your mother just lost her job . >There's no way we can afford it.' The next day the father saw little Joseph >heading out the front door with a suitcase. So he asked, 'Son, where are >you going?' little Joseph told him ; ' I was walking past your room last >night and heard you telling 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!'.
