Potentially and Realistically

Potentially and Realistically

What's the difference between potentially & realistically?
A young boy went up to his father and asked him, "Dad, what is the
difference between potentially and realistically?"

The father thought for a moment, then answered, "Go ask your mother if she
would sleep with Robert Redford for a million dollars. Then ask your
sister if she would sleep with Brad Pitt for a million dollars, and then,
ask your brother if he'd sleep with Tom Cruise for a million dollars. Come
back and tell me what you learn from that."

So the boy went to his mother and asked, "Would you sleep with Robert
Redford for a million dollars?"

The mother replied, "Of course I would! We could really use that money to
fix up the house and send you kids to a great University!"
The boy then went to his sister and asked, "Would you sleep with Brad Pitt
for a million dollars?"
The girl replied, "Oh my God! I LOVE Brad Pitt! I would sleep with him in
a
heartbeat, are you nuts?!?!?"
The boy then went to his brother and asked, "Would you sleep with Tom
Cruise
for a million dollars?"
"Of course," the brother replied. "Do you know how much a million could
buy?"

The boy pondered the answers for a few days, then went back to his dad.
His father asked him, "Did you find out the difference between potentially
and
realistically?"
The boy replied, "Yes, Sir. Potentially, you and I are sitting on Three
Million Dollars ............ but Realistically ......... we're living
with two Sluts and a Queer.
