Dad was responsible for buying a gift and getting his nine-year-old daughter to a birthday party for her friend. They went to the store together and bought the gift. After arriving home, Dad made a valiant effort to wrap the gift. He tried wrapping it with paper, but the gift was an awkward shape. He tried shoving it in a gift bag, but it didn't quite fit. The bag split. He thought all was lost until a brilliant idea popped into his head.
He walked to the kitchen, reached under the sink, and pulled out a black garbage bag. He placed the present in the bag, gave the bag a twist and knotted up the top. As a final touch, he taped the birthday card on the side. As he stood admiring his handy work his daughter looked up at him with big wide eyes and said, "I am not touching that. And...when Mom gets home I'm tellin' her."
Gotta give Dad props for being a problem solver.
