The Boss

I'm contemplating finally taking a chance and starting my own company so I decide to test out my new plan on my 8 year old daughter.
"Hey, Becca. What would you think if I were home more because I started my own company?"
Becca looks at me with tears in her eyes. "But then I'd never get to go to your office and see your friends. I only get to once a year and now I would have anyplace to go."
"But Becca. I'd be President of my own company! Wouldn't that be cool?"
Rebecca looks me straight in the eye and replies, "but no one would be working for you."
Sometimes reality checks from an 8 year old can be harsh. Looks like I'll be heading to the office tomorrow...again.

George Washington's Teeth

"Mommy, did George Washington have wooden teeth?" "Yes, Dylan. He had wooden teeth."
"How did that happen? Was he born with them?"
