A young girl moves away to college. After being there a few weeks, one day she walks by a pet shop. She sees this cute little monkey, and decides she has to have it. Knowing her father won't send her money for a monkey, she writes to him and says, Dad, I need a bicycle to get around on. Her dad thought this was practical, and sent her the money. Of course, she went and bought the monkey. A few months later, the monkey got some sort of disease, and its hair started falling out. Forgetting that she has asked for a bike, she wrote her father and said, Dad, the hair is falling out of my monkey, what should I do? Her father replied, "Sell the bicycle."
