A conversation overheard between Timmy, a 17-year-old and his father.

"Dad, I want to get my MFA degree in photography and film and become great like Ansel Adams or Steven Spielberg. But I need you to chip in about $35,000 a semester for school."

"Hmmm. Well, Timmy. I'm not too sure about that. When mom and I bought you that Nikon for your birthday to shoot pictures at Aunt Sallie's wedding, not one shot came out in focus. Maybe you should take up bronc riding or another physical skill rather than depending on your artistic skills?"

"Well, Dad, if photography doesn't work out for me, I could switch my major to oil painting and become a great artist like Picasso."
