Rants and Raves

A six-year-old boy told his father he wanted to marry
the little girl across the street. The father, being
modern and well schooled in handling children, hid his
smile behind his hand.

"That's a serious step," he said. "Have you thought it
out completely?"

"Yes," his young son answered. "We can spend one week
in my room and the next in hers. It's right across the
street, so I can run home if I get scared of the dark."

"How about transportation?" the father asked.

"I have my wagon, and we both have our tricycles," the
little boy answered.

The boy had an answer to every question the father
raised. Finally, in exasperation, his dad asked, "What
about babies? When you're married, you're liable to have
babies, you know."

"We've thought about that, too," the little boy replied.
"We're not going to have babies. Every time she lays an
egg, I'm going to step on it!"
