  1. A Funny Story

    Share Share Post
    Once there was a man who loved his father but was a very bad man to his mother.
    When he came to his meals if they were not ready he would kick and break every thing in the house. One day his mother asked him what he will do when she dies "oh father and I will just as well as before you were born" said he.
