THE PINK PING PONG BALL
There once was a boy and his father, the father was very wealthy and wanted to give his son anything he wanted. On his sons 2 birthday, the father asked his little boy
Son what do you want for your birthday
The son, who could speak quite well for a 2 yr old said Daddy I want a pink ping pong ball
The father replied son, your a boy and I'm never going to buy you anything thats pink! so the father bought him his first tricycle
This is pretty much how things went through out the boys life, each and every birthday and Christmas the boy requested a pink ping pong ball
On the boys 8th birthday, the father said son what do you want for your birthday
The boy said Dad all I want is a pink ping pong ball
Son we've been over this I'm not buying you anything pink
So the father bought him a brand new top of the line bike.
Years went by, and the still continued to request the pink ping pong ball---the father bought his son all kinds of expensive gifts; computers, game systems, and many other things
Finally the day of his sixteenth b-day had arrived. So what do you want for a graduation gift.
Dad I want......all I really want is a pink ping pong ball
Son!! I'm not buying you anything pink, not now, not ever, your 16 what in the world do you want a pink ping pong ball for?
So the father bought his son, a brand top of the car
The years flew by and before the father knew it his son was getting married
Son what do you and your bride want for a gift
Well dad...we talked it over
Yes
Well we want a Pink Ping Pong Ball
Son what is it with you and pink ping pong ball, you know I'm a wealthy man and I can give you whatever you want for a wedding gift but all you want is a pink ping pong ball?
So the dad bought his son and daughter in law a beautiful mansion that over looked the ocean
On the couples tenth Anniversary, the dad once again asked what do you want for your gift
The son said Father all I want.....is a pink ping pong ball
Son!!! Once and for all...stop with the pink ping pong ball..so the father bought them a top of the line boat to take out on the ocean
A few months later the son ended up in the hospital with an incurable disease
Son, son is there anything I get you or do for you
Yes dad....you can get me a pink ping pong ball
Son....son what is it with pink ping pong balls...why from the time you were little has that been the only thing you've ever wanted
I....I
Then he died.
