MY DAD

MY DADDY IS AN EXOTIC DANCER

One day a fourth-grade teacher asked the children what
their fathers did for a living. All the typical answers came
up -- fireman, mechanic, businessman, salesman, doctor,
lawyer, and so forth.

However, little Justin was being uncharacteristically
quiet, so when the teacher prodded him about his father, he
finally replied, 'Okay...my father's an exotic
dancer in a gay cabaret and takes off all his clothes in
front of other men and they put money in his underwear.
Sometimes, if the offer is really good, he will go home with
some guy and stay with him all night for money.'

The teacher, obviously shaken by this statement, hurriedly
set the other children to work on some exercises and then
took little Justin aside to ask him,

'Is that really
true about your father?'

'No', the boy said, 'He actually works for the
Democratic National Committee and helped get Barack Obama
elected President last year, but I was too embarrassed to
say that in front of the class.'
