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. And I'll be damned if I'm staying here by
myself with an $80,000 mortgage and no bike!
