My mother taught me to read when I was four years old (her first mistake).
 
 One day, I was in the bathroom and noticed one of the cabinet doors was
    ajar. I read the box in the cabinet. I then asked my mother why she
    was keeping ‘napkins' in the bathroom. Didn't they belong in the
    kitchen? Not wanting to burden me with unnecessary facts, she told me
    that those were for "special occasions."
 
 Now fast forward a few months.
 
 It's Thanksgiving Day, and my folks are leaving to pick up the pastor
    and his wife for dinner. Mom had assignments for all of us while they
    were gone. Mine was to set the table. When they returned, the pastor
    came in first and immediately burst into laughter.
 
 Next came his wife who gasped, then began giggling. Next came my father,
    who roared with laughter. Then came Mom, who almost died of embarrassment
    when she saw each place setting on the table with a "special occasion"
    napkin at each plate, with the fork carefully arranged on top. I had
    even tucked the little tail in so they didn't hang of the edge!
 
 My mother asked me why I used these and, of course, my response sent the
    other adults into further fits of laughter. "But, Mom, you SAID they
    were for special occasions!"
