The man took out his wallet, extracted 2 dollars and asked, "If I give you this money, will you take it and buy whiskey?" "No, I stopped drinking years ago," the bum said.
"Will you use it to gamble?" "I don''t gamble. I need everything I can get just to stay alive!"
"Will you spend the money on tickets to a baseball game?" "Are you crazy? I haven''t been to a baseball game in 25 years!"
The man said, "Well, I'm not going to give you two dollars. Instead, I'm going to take you to my home for a terrific dinner cooked by my wife, Susan."
The bum was astounded. "Won't your wife be furious with you for doing that? I know that I'm dirty, and I probably smell bad."
"That' s OK," the man replied. "I just want her to see what a man looks like who has given up drinking, gambling, and baseball!"

We learn a lot from crayons:
some are sharp; some are dull; some are pretty;
some have weird names; all are different colors.
And they all have to learn to live in the same box.
