WELFARE OFFICE
A woman walks into the downtown welfare office, trailed
by 15 kids.
'WOW,' the social worker exclaims, 'are they all yours?''
Ya they are all Mine,' the flustered momma sighs, having
heard that
Question a thousand times before.
She says, 'Sit down Leroy.' All the children rush to
Find seats..
Well,' says the social worker, 'then you must be here to
sign up.
I'll need all your children's' names
'Well, to keep it simple, the boys are all named Leroy
and the girls are all named Leighroy.
In disbelief, the case worker asks, 'Are you serious?
They're ALL named Leroy?'
Their momma replied, 'Well, yes-it makes it easier..
When it's time to get them out of bed and ready for
school, I yell, 'Leroy!'
An' when it's time for dinner, I just yell 'Leroy!' an
they all comes a runnin.
An' if I need to stop the kid who's running into the
street, I just yell
Leroy' and all of them stop.
It's the smartest idea I ever had, namin' them all Leroy.
The social worker thinks this over for a bit, then
wrinkles her forehead and says tentatively,
'But what if you just want ONE kid to come, and not the
whole bunch?'
'Then I call them by their last names.'
