Today's FEEBLE attempt at humor:

An older couple had a son, who was still living with his parents. The
parents were a little worried, as the son was still unable to decide
about his future career, so they decided to do a small test.

They took a ten-dollar bill, a Bible, and a bottle of whiskey, and
put them on the front hall table... then they hid, pretending they
were not at home.

The father's plan was: "If our son takes the money, he will be a
businessman, if he takes the bible, he will be a priest - but if
he takes the bottle of whiskey, I'm afraid our son will be a
drunkard."

So the parents hid in the nearby closet and waited nervously.

Peeping through the keyhole they saw their son arrive. The son saw
the note they had left. Then, he took the 10-dollar bill, looked
at it against the light, and slid it in his pocket.

After that, he took the Bible, flicked through it, and took it.

Finally he grabbed the bottle, opened it, and took an appreciative
whiff to be assured of the quality ... then he left for his room,
carrying all three items.

The father slapped his forehead, and said: "Darn, it's even worse
than I could ever have imagined... "

"What's this mean!?" his wife asked quizzically.

"I'm afraid our son's going to be a politician!"
