Risky Business

A salesman rang the bell at a suburban home, and was greeted by a nine-year-old boy puffing on a long black cigar

Hiding his amazement, the salesman asked the boy, ``Is your mother home?''

The boy took the cigar out of his mouth, flicked ashes on the carpet and asked, ``What do you think?''
