Once upon a time a young boy wanted a green tennis ball for his birthday, but he got a bicycle instead. Next year the boy wanted a green tennis ball, again, and again he got something different, this time a book on etiquette. On the 3rd birthday he still wanted a green tennis ball, but got some coloring pencils and a notebook to draw on. Each year, he wished for a green tennis ball, never getting a green tennis ball.
On his deathbed, surrounded by friends, family, children & grandchildren, and one of the grandchildren asked: "Why do you always want a green tennis ball for your birthday?" and he answered: "Oh, that's because ..." and then he died.
