Thanks to Johnny L for sharing this
jokes with us.
A boy comes home from school one day with a question on his
mind, and goes to his father for an answer. "Father," he asks,
"what is the difference between potentially and realistically?" His
father is thoughtful for a moment, and then replies, "Well, I'll tell you
what, son. Go and ask your mother if she'd sleep with the mailman for a million
dollars."
The boy is confused, but follows his father instructions, and proceeds into the
kitchen. When he returns, he tells father, "She said she would,
Dad..." His father again looks thoughtful, and so the boy asks, "Now
will you teach me the difference between potential and reality?"'
The father says, "I will, son, but first, go ask your sister if she'd sleep
with the mailman for a million dollars." The boy is even more puzzled, but
does as his father says. After he return from his sister's room, he says,
"Yes, dad, she said she would sleep with the mailman for a million dollars.
Now will you teach me the difference between potentially and
realistically?"
The father looks up at his son, and says, "Alright son, think about this:
Potentially, we've got two million dollars, but realistically - we're just
living with a couple of sluts."
