One day after work，I was driving my two sons home from school when Christopher asked if we could stop by a store so he could by a birthday gift to take to the school the next day. I said，“sure，but why?”he proceeded to tell me that tomorrow would be George Washington‘s birthday，and he want to take him a gift.
His older brother，Richard，looked at Christopher and said，“he is dead，stipid!”
Christopher‘s quick reply was，“darn，I knew we should have bought it sooner!”
一天下班之后，我開車到學校接兩個孩子回家時，克里斯托弗問我能否在商店門口停一下車，他要買份生日禮物。我說：“當然可以了，不過是什么原因呢?”于是他告訴我說明天是喬治·華盛頓的生日，他想送他一份禮物。
他的哥哥理查德看著他說：“他已經死了，你這個笨家伙!”
克里斯托弗迅速的回答道：“唉，早就知道我們該早點買禮物的了!”
