Breaking: Homeschool Family Still Waiting for Child to Set the Table
It is 11:30 in the evening. Supper has been warm and ready for the last five hours, but little Johnny Penner, the seventh child of the Penner family, has still not set the table, thus preventing the family from enjoying the meal.
His mother asked him to do it five hours ago, but he was too busy building the Trump Tower with Lego. The entire family waited patiently for him to finish his replication of the 71-storey building; however, his little sister Leah, in a moment of rage, knocked it down, causing it to smash to pieces. Infuriated, Johnny stormed off to his room and sulked, all the while plotting his revenge.
Two hours later, while the Penner family sat expectantly around the table waiting for Johnny to set it, Johnny stormed out of his room announcing that he would not set the table till he completely reconstructed the Trump Tower.
At publishing time, the Penner family was still waiting, the food was getting cold, and Johnny had moved on to reconstructing the entire city of Jerusalem.
