ON YER BIKE

A FATHER came home from a long business trip to find his young son riding a brand new bike.

“Where did you get the money for that?” he asked. “It must have cost over $300!” “I earned it hiking,” the boy replied. “Hiking? Come on son; tell your dad the truth,” the boy’s father said. “Nobody can make that sort of money hiking. Where did you really get the cash from?”

“But Dad, it’s the truth. Every night when you were gone, Mr Jones from the bank would come over to see Mum. He’d give me a $20 bill and tell me to take a hike!” Tay Kerhyke, email
