Subject: Potentially and Realistically...
A young boy went up to his father and asked him,
"Dad, what is the difference between potentially
and realistically?"
The father thought for a moment, then answered,
"Go ask your mother if she would sleep with Brad Pitt
for a million dollars. Then ask your sister if she
would sleep with Brad Pitt for a million dollars,
and then, ask your brother if he'd sleep with Brad Pitt
for a million dollars.
Come back and tell me what you learn from that.
So the boy went to his mother and asked,
"Would you sleep with Brad Pitt for a million
dollars?"
The mother replied, "Of course I would! We could
really use that money to fix up the house and send
you kids to a great University!"
The boy then went to his sister and asked, "Would
you sleep with Brad Pitt for a million dollars?" The girl
replied, "Oh my God! I LOVE Brad Pitt I would sleep
with him in a heartbeat, are you nuts?"
The boy then went to his brother and asked, "Would
you sleep with Brad Pitt for a million dollars?"
"Of course," the brother replied. "Do you know how
much a million bucks would buy?"
The boy pondered the answers for a few days and
then went back to his dad.
His father asked him, "Did you find out the
difference between potentially and realistically?"
The boy replied, "Yes. Potentially, you and I are
sitting on three million dollars, but realistically,
we're living with two hookers and a homo.
