One fine day, little Joe came rushing in to his dad. Dad was having a beer, watching the TV and also reading the newspaper during commercial breaks. Joe knew it’s not a good idea to disturb his dad while the game was on and the beer unfinished, so he waited for the first break, when he suddenly puffed:
– Dad! Is it true that an apple a day keeps the doctor away?
– If you wouldn’t be below the legal drinking age, I would say at least two beers a day keep the doctor away, but since you’re still to young for that… I guess that’s what they say. It could even be true, I guess. Yeah, son, you could say an apple a day keeps the doctor away, said dad, thinking about the fact that this could finally make Joe eat some apples, and even his mother’s apple pie…
– Well, give me an apple, and better make it quick !!!, said Joe, making his father put aside the beer and the newspaper, wondering what happened.
– You just went to your doctor last week, and you’re perfectly healthy! Any problems you think I should know of?
– Well, dad, I feel great, but… I’ve just broken the doctor’s window!
