While working as a mall Santa, I had many children ask for electric trains. "If you get a train," I would tell each one, "you know your dad is going to want to play with it too. Is that okay?"
The usual answer was a quick yes, but after I asked one boy this question, he became very quiet. Trying to move the conversation along, I asked what else he would like Santa to bring him. He promptly replied, "Another train."
Wanna hear two short jokes and a long joke?
Joke, joke, joooooooooooooke...
A father is washing his car with his son.
All of a sudden, the tired boy says, "Dad?"
"Yeah, son?"
"Can't you just use a sponge like everyone else?"
I never knew that laundry detergent goes bad.
But it seems the Tide has turned.
