The Balcony

Bill and Marla decided that the only way to pull off a Sunday
afternoon quickie with their ten-year-old son in the apartment
was to send him out on the balcony and order him to report on
all the neighborhood activities.


The boy began his commentary as his parents put their plan into
operation. "There's a car being towed from the parking lot." he
said. "An ambulance just drove by."


A few moments passed. "Looks like the Andersons have company,"
he called out. "Matt is riding a cool bike and the Coopers are
having sex."


Mom and Dad shot up in bed. "How do you know that?" the startled
father asked.


"Their kid is standing out on the balcony too," his son replied.
