Balcony View

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 tell 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's riding a new 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.
