When I get home,T.J still looks unhappy.
"T.J,guess what?"I say."I used one of your riddles tonight.Brad's little sister thought it was really funny.So let's find more riddles for the next time I go over there.And maybe you can come along with me sometime."

Erh.60,still works construction part-time and hasn't thought twice about parting with the 7million he's given to family,friends,and the community.
"If you have enough to feed yourself,you help others out."he says.
