Little Johnny and Jenny are only 10 years old, but they just know
that they are in love. One day they decide that they want to get
married, so Johnny goes to Jenny's father to ask him for her hand.
Johnny bravely walks up to him and says "Mr. Smith, me and Jenny
are in love and I want to ask you for her hand in marriage."
Thinking that this was just the cutest thing that he had ever
heard, Mr. Smith replies, "Well Johnny, you are only 10. Where will
you two live?"
Without even taking a moment to think about it, Johnny replies "In
Jenny's room. It's bigger than mine and we can both fit there
nicely."
Still thinking this is just adorable, Mr. Smith says with a huge
grin, "Okay then how will you live? You're not old enough to get a
job. You'll need to support Jenny."
Again, Johnny instantly replies, "Our allowance. Jenny makes 5
bucks a week and I make 10 bucks a week. That's about 60 bucks a
month and that should do us just fine."
By this time Mr. Smith is a little shocked that Johnny has put so
much thought into this. He thinks for a moment trying to come up
with something that Johnny won't have an answer to.
After a second, Mr. Smith says, "Well Johnny, it seems like you
have got everything all figured out. I just have one more question
for you. What will you do if the two of you should have little ones of your own?"
Johnny just shrugs his shoulders and says "Well, we've been lucky so far..."
Mr. Smith doesn't think the little chit is adorable anymore.
