Subject: Real vs. Potential
Little Johnny 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 little Johnny 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!"
He 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?"
Little Johnny 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?"
He 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?"
Little Johnny replied, "Yes. Potentially, you and I are sitting
on
three million dollars, but realistically, we're living with two hookers
and
a
homo."
