Though skeptical of his teenage son's newfound determination to build bulging muscles, one father followed his teenager to the store's weight-lifting department, where they admired a set of weights.
"Please, Dad," pleaded the teen, "I promise I'll use 'em every day."
"I don't know, Michael. It's really a commitment on your part," the father said.
"Please, Dad?"
"They're not cheap either," the father said.
"I'll use 'em, Dad, I promise. You'll see."
Finally won over, the father paid for the equipment and headed for the door. After a few steps, he heard his son behind him say, "What! You mean I have to carry them to the car?"
