A little boy and his grandfather are raking leaves in
the yard. The little boy finds an earthworm trying to
get back into its hole.
He says, "Grandpa, I bet I can put that worm back
in that hole."
The grandfather replies, "I'll bet you five dollars
you can't. It's too wiggly and limp to put back in that
little hole." The little boy runs into the house
and comes back out with a can of hairspray. He sprays
the worm until it is straight and stiff as a board. Then
he puts the worm back into the hole.
The grandfather hands the little boy five dollars, grabs
the hairspray, and runs into the house. Thirty minutes
later the grandfather comes back out and hands the little
boy another five dollars.
The little boy says, "Grandpa, you already gave me
five dollars."
The grandfather replies, "I know. That's from your
grandma."
