Little Boy Questions…

“What is a.. a harem?” The 12 year old boy asked as he looked up from the book he was reading.

His father glanced over at him. “What kind of book are you reading?”

“Something the teacher assigned as homework. But, what is it?”

The father wrinkled out his paper and said, “It’s when a man doesn’t realize he’s made the same mistake… a bunch of times.”
