A funny joke

 

A $50 Lesson

I recently asked my friends' little girl what she wanted to be when she grows up. She said she wanted to be President some day. Both of her parents, liberal Democrats, were standing there, so I asked her, 'If you were President what would be the first thing you would do? '


She replied, 'I'd give food and houses to all the homeless people.'

Her parents beamed with pride.

'Wow....what a worthy goal.' I told her, 'But you don't have to wait until you're President to do that. You can come over to my house and mow the lawn, pull weeds, and sweep my yard, and I'll pay you $50. Then I'll take you over to the grocery store where the homeless guy hangs out, and you can give him the $50 to use toward food and a new house. '


She thought that over for a few seconds, then she looked me straight in the eye and asked, ' Why doesn't the homeless guy come over and do the work, and you can just pay him the $50? '

I said, 'Welcome to the Republican Party.'

Her parents still aren't speaking to me. .

Jonathan Balas LIVE June 14th...

-------Hey everyone, long time no talk.  I've been out of the performing scene for about 9 months but I'm back at it with new material!  I'm finding myself as an artist and I feel it is definitely starting to show through my songs.  This email is to inform you of a show I will be playing in Silverlake (east of Hollywood).  Yes, this is a Los Angeles show.  I have neglected my peeps down here and it is now their turn!  But out of town-ers, don't be alarmed, I will explain later in this message how you can help.

Ok, so I'm playing at El Cid.  It's a mexican restaurant, so make sure you bring your appetite for a chimichanga (or whatever...enchilada?).  There is a stage with lights I will be performing on, so don't worry about me, I won't be singing from a donkey or anything....but that is a good idea.  Next time.  So if you are able to make it out, I would love to see you there.  Also, bring a friend and help me build my fan base.  If not, don't worry, there will be other shows (and I may be on a donkey).  I will post details below, so shoot me an email if you have any questions.

Ok, out of town-ers who have always supported what I do but have never been able to make it out to a show, this is for you.  As a struggling musician, ticket sales help provide for the small things such as guitar strings and a space to rehearse.  If you want to support me and my musical journey, but are unable to make it out to a show, I have provided a way for you to help.  You can purchase an imaginary ticket (ghost ticket) online via paypal.  Donations will be going back into my "music fund", so don't worry about me spending it on petty things.  This will help more than you know.  So thank you everyone who has kept the fire burning.  Feel free to shoot me an email, would love to hear from you.

Yours truly,

Jonathan
