"The kind of ancestors we have is not as important as the kind of descendants our ancestors have."

A young boy asked his father how much he earned an hour.  Father who was busy got frustrated with son and sharply answered £8.  The son asked his father for £4. Father refused and son pestered so much that father sent him to bed.  Later father felt guilty and gave him the £4.  Son reached under his pillow and added 4 more coins.  "Daddy, can I buy an hour of your time?"

Clean Laugh
Mary Siegel was almost crazy with her three young kids.  She complained to her best friend, "They're driving me nuts!!  Such pests. They give me no rest and I'm half way to the funny farm." "What you need is a playpen to separate the kids from yourself," her friend said.  So Mary bought a playpen A few days later, her friend called to ask how things were going. "Superb!  I can't believe it," Mary said.  "I get in that pen with a good book, a chocolate bar, and the kids don't bother me for hours!"
