Jack & Jill like all parents are very concern about their child well being. Bill their son just got out of High School seem to be interested in nothing. Parents advise to Bill seems to fall in deaf ears.
So one sunny day after church. They went out to visit a good friend (Tom) who help them before to hear what he have to say for their son Bill.
At Toms house, Jack & Jill start talking about their son Bill.
Wife: Our son Bill is driving us crazy.
Tom: In what way?
Wife: Well! Bill as you know is out of school and he just seems to just waste his time doing nothing. He comes home late, and don't seem to be interested in nothing. When we recomend somehting that may interest him, he just seem to not even hear us.
Wife: Tom what shall we do?
Tom after some contemplation. OK! Jack, Jill: Tonight before Bill comes home. This is what I want for you to do. On a table were Bill can see them. I want for you to lay out three things.
1st. $100 bill.
2nd. A bottle of whiskey.
3rd. A Bible.
Hide somewhere come back and tell me what Bill pick up.
Couple: OK Tom and thank you.
The next day after seeing there son pick the items. They hurry back to Toms house to tell him what they saw.
Couple: Tom we did what you told us. When Bill came home, he saw the $100 bill and put it in his pocket. Then he saw the whiskey opened it and took a drink out of it. He then saw the Bible, opened it and read some verses from the Bible before putting it down on the table.
Couple: Tom what does this mean?
Tom said: "Well, its' worst than I though. I know if he were to pick the $100 and put it in his pocket he'll be a gambler. If he drunk of the whiskey bottle, he'll be a drunk. And if he pick up the Bible and read some verse out of it. I know he'll be a preacher. But picking up all THREE. Its' worst than I though."
Couple are beside themselves and beg Tom to tell them.
Tom: I hate to tell you this, but Your son will be a POLITICIAN.
