Inflation
A blonde tour guide is showing a tourist group around Washington D.C.
When they reach the Potomac, the guide points out where George Washington supposedly threw a dollar across the river.
One of the tourists says, “That’s impossible, no one could throw a coin that far!”
The guide answers, “You have to remember, a dollar went a lot farther in those days.”
Lessons kids learn from their parents:
- My mother taught me logic. “If you fall out of that swing and break your neck, you’re not going to the store with me.”
- My father taught me irony. “Keep crying, and I’ll give you something to cry about.”
- My mother taught me about the science of osmosis. “Shut your mouth and eat your supper.”
