The Apartment
Joe and Rhoda had a small apartment in the city, and they decided that the only way to pull off a Sunday afternoon quickie with their 10-year-old son in the apartment was to send him out on the balcony and order him to report on all the neighborhood activities. To a young boy, they thought, spying would be a lot of fun and would distract him for an hour or so. The boy began his commentary as his parents put their plan into operation:
"There's a car being towed from the parking lot," he said.
"An ambulance just drove by."
A few moments passed...
"Looks like the Andersons have company," he called out.
"Matt's riding a new bike and Hey! The Coopers are having sex!"
Joe and Rhoda shot up in bed. "How do you know that?" the startled father asked.
"Their kid is standing out on the balcony too!"
