   A children's story?   
   11 Jul 15 11:18:36   
   
   Little Bruce   
       
   Little Bruce and Jenny are only 10 years old, but they know they are in love.   
   One day they decide that they want to get married, so Bruce goes to Jenny's   
   father to ask him for her hand.   
       
   Bruce 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, Mr. Smith replies, "Well Bruce,   
   you are only 10. Where will you two live?"   
       
   Without even taking a moment to think about it, Bruce replies, "In Jenny's   
   room. It's bigger than mine and we can both fit there nicely."   
       
   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, Bruce instantly replies, "Our allowance. Jenny makes five bucks a week   
   and I make 10 bucks a week. That's about 60 bucks a month, so that should do   
   us just fine."   
       
   Mr. Smith is impressed Bruce has put so much thought into this.   
       
   "Well Bruce, it seems like you have everything figured out. I just have one   
   more question. What will you do if the two of you should have little children   
   of your own?"   
       
   Bruce just shrugs his shoulders and says, "Well, we've been lucky so far."   
       
   Mr. Smith no longer thinks this little kid is adorable.   
       
       
   Regards,   
       
   Roger
