How To Be Truthful

Solomon being a firm believer of the more the merrier had 8 kids by the 10^th year of marriage. So, when he was forced to move because of his new job, he was having a very hard time finding an apartment where the landlord would be willing to rent to such a large family. And after being turned down one time too many, he finally had an idea. He said to his wife, “Listen here Ruth, go with the six little kids to the cemetery while I go see this apartment.” Later that day while checking out an apartment the landlord asked, “How many children do you have?” And Solomon truthfully replied, “I have 8 children, but 6 of them are with their Mother in the cemetery.”
