I was getting my hair cut at a neighborhood shop, and I asked the
barber when would be the best time to bring in my two-year-old son.
Without hesitation, the barber answered, "When he's four."

At one point during a game, the coach said to one of his young players,
"Do you understand what cooperation is? What a team is?" The little boy
nodded in the affirmative. "Do you understand that what matters is whether
we win together as a team?" The little boy nodded yes. "So," the coach
continued, "when a strike is called, or you're out at first, you don't
argue or curse or attack the umpire. Do you understand all that?" Again
the little boy nodded. "Good," said the coach. "Now, please go over there
and explain it to your mother."

I decided to stop worrying about my daughter's driving and take advantage
of it. I got one of those bumper stickers that says, "How's my driving?"
and put a 900 number on it. At 50 cents a call, I've making a fortune!
