A
hard working man heard an interesting conversation his two year old daughter
had with his wife. They were discussing geography and the mother asked.” Where
does mommy live?” “Minneapolis,” answered the child.  “Where
does grandma live?” “Baltimore,” said the little girl.”  “Where
does grandpa live?”  She dutifully answered, “Baltimore.”  Finally
the question came, “And where does daddy live?”  “At work,” said the
girl.  Do you suppose the man spent more time at home after that?
