A Smart Kid

A young boy enters a barber shop and the barber whispers to his customer: – “This is the dumbest kid in the world. Watch while I prove it to you.”

The barber puts a dollar bill in one hand and two quarters in the other, then calls the boy over and asks: – “Which do you want, son?”

The boy takes the quarters and leaves. – “What did I tell you?” said the barber. “That kid never learns!”

Later, when the customer leaves, he sees the same young boy coming out of the ice cream store. – “Hey, son! May I ask you a question? Why did you take the quarters instead of the dollar bill?”

The boy licked his cone and replied: – “Because the day I take the dollar, the game is over!”
