The not so distant future...

//SCENE: Not so distant future://

Future Grandson: "Grandpa...tell me about America..."

Me: "What's that? speak up future grandson, into my good ear..."

Future Grandson:"America, Grandpa, what was it like?..."

Me: "Oh, yes, I remember America...*sigh*...see, America, before you were born, was once a great Republic...I know that seems hard to believe...but those were the days...maybe tomorrow night I'll tell you all about piggy-banks...they were neat too...not much use for them now"

Future Grandson: "What is a bank?"

Me: "Oh....wow...ummm...yeah...they had money at one time...you know what a piggy is right?...well...same thing only...aww...nevermind...sleep tight"

//End SCENE//
