Dave took Mary out for a romantic dinner
Dave took Mary out for a romantic dinner where the conversation turned to the subject of marriage.
Dave had been saving for an engagement ring, but he was in graduate school and in dire need of a new computer.
Mary was understanding, telling Dave they had the rest of their lives to get engaged,
So he should use his savings to buy a computer instead.
During dessert, Dave suddenly reached into his pocket and pulled out an engagement ring.
Mary was stunned, but after she collected herself, she looked up and prompted:
“Well, don’t you have something to ask me?”
Dave then got down on bended knee.
“Honey,” he said,
“Will you buy me a new computer?”
A young boy and his dad went out fishing one fine morning.
After a few quiet hours out in the boat, the boy became curious about the world around him. He looked up at his dad and asked, “How do fish breathe underwater?”
His dad thought about it for a moment, then replied, “I really don’t know, son.”
The boy sat quietly for a moment, then turned back to his dad and asked, “How does our boat float on the water?”
Once again, his dad replied, “Don’t know, son.”
Pondering his thoughts again, a short while later, the boy ask, “Why is the sky blue?”
Again, his dad replied. “Don’t know, son.”
The inquisitive boy, worried he was annoying his father, asks this time, “Dad, do you mind that I’m asking you all of these questions?”
“Of course not, son,” replied his dad, “How else are you ever going to learn anything?”
