The family was gathered at dinner. The oldest boy announced he
was going to marry the girl across the street.
'But her family didn't have a penny,' objected his father.
'And she hasn't saved a cent,' added mother.
'She doesn't know a thing about football,' said junior.
'I've never seen a girl with such funny hair,' said sister.
'All she does is read novels,' said uncle.
'And such poor taste in the choice of her clothes,' said aunt.
'But she isn't sparing of the powder and the paint,' said grandma.
'True,' said the boy. 'But she has one supreme advantage over
all of us.'
'What's that?' everyone wanted to know.
'She has no family.'
