Tommy went to his father and asked him, โDad, what is the difference between potentially and realistically?โ His father thought for a moment, then answered, โGo ask your mother if she would sleep with Brad Pitt for a million dollars. Then ask your sister if she would sleep with Brad Pitt for a million dollars, and then ask your brother if heโd sleep with Brad Pitt for a million dollars. Come back and tell me what you learn from that.โ
So Tommy went to his mother and asked, โWould you sleep with Brad Pitt for a million dollars?โ She replied, โOf course I would! We could really use the money to fix up the house and send you kids to college!โ Tommy then went to his sister and asked, โWould you sleep with Brad Pitt for a million dollars?โ She replied, โI Love Brad Pitt, I would sleep with him in a heartbeat!โ Finally Tommy asked his brother, โWould you sleep with Brad Pitt for a million dollars?โ He replied. โOf course, do you know how much a million bucks would buy?โ
Tommy pondered the answers and went back to his Dad. His father asked him, โDid you find out the difference between potentially and realistically?โ Tommy replied, โYes. Potentially, you and I are sitting on three million dollars, but realistically, weโre living with two hookers and a homo.โ
