Lust in Translation

For his birthday a boy asks for a bicycle.


His father says, “Son, we would give you one, but the mortgage on this house is $280,000. There is no way we can afford it.”


The next day the father sees the boy heading out the front door carrying a suitcase. So he asks, “Son where are you going?”


The boy says, “I was walking past your room last night and heard you telling Mommy you were pulling out. Then I heard her tell you to wait because she was coming, too. And I’ll be damned if I’m staying here by myself with a $280,000 mortgage and no bike!”
