Show and Tell
Little David was in his 5th grade class when the teacher
asked the children what their fathers did for a living.
All the typical answers came up -- fireman, policeman,
salesman, doctor, lawyer, etc. David was being
uncharacteristically quiet and so he teacher asked him
about his father. "My father's an exotic dancer in a gay
cabaret and takes off all his clothes in front of other
men. Sometimes, if the offer's really good, he'll go out
to the alley with some guy and make love with him for
money." The teacher, obviously shaken by this statement,
hurriedly set the other children to work on some
exercises and took little David aside to ask him, "Is
that really true about your father?" "No," said David,
"He works for the Bush administration, but I was too
embarrassed to say that in front of the other kids."
