Times getting hard

[Arch_Angel]

Every morning John would drive down Constant Spring Road on his way to work. And every morning he would stop and give the resident beggar man $50.

After a while John started to give the beggar $30. The beggar, noticing that his money was reduced, was not too pleased, but said nothing.

Later on, John began giving the beggar $20. The beggar, noticing this further decrease, became noticeably upset and decided to speak to John about it.

He stopped John one morning after accepting $20 and said, "Wha' happening man? Yuh use to gi me $50, then yuh cut it down to $30, now dis!"

John replied, "Boy, times have been hard. My eldest boy just started at UWI and my youngest daughter is now at high school...so you know how it a go..."

The beggar looked at him with impatience and asked, "Hexactly how much pickney dem yuh 'ave, boss?"

"Four," replied John.

The now irate beggar asked in a tone of disbelief, "Suh yuh mean fi tell me dat is out of mi money yuh a sen' yuh pickney dem a school?"
