Coal

This morning John and I were talking about his Christmas list. He said "I already know what I want." I was a little shocked, and asked "Really? What's on your list?" He leaned over and whispered "Coal." Ok, not what I was expecting. I said "Really? Why?" He looked at me like I was crazy and said "Because you can turn coal into diamonds!" This kid. He thinks of everything. So I said "Yea, but do you know how to turn coal into diamonds." He said "I think you need really high heat and some pressure. I'm not sure." I laughed and said "You know when I was little if you were on the naughty list you only got coal!" He said "Well I think it's better to ask for coal then to ask for you know, diamonds."
