A boy, frustrated with all the rules he had to follow,
turned to his father and said,
"Dad, how soon will I be old enough to do as I please?"

The father answered immediately,
"Son, I don't know.
No man has lived that long yet!"

The father of five children won a toy at a raffle.
He called his kids together to ask which one should have the present.

"Who is the most obedient?", he asked.
"Who never talks back to mother?
Who does everything she says?"

Five small voices answered in unison:

"Okay Dad, you get the toy!"

Three boys are in the schoolyard bragging of how great their fathers are.

The first one says: "Well, my father runs the fastest. He can fire an arrow, and start to run, I tell you, he gets there before the arrow."

The second one says: "Ha! You think that's fast! My father is a hunter. He can shoot his gun and be there before the bullet."

The third one listens to the other two and shakes his head. He then says: "You two know nothing about fast. My father is a civil servant. He stops working at 4:30 and he is home by 3:45
