YOUTH: hey can u summarize the story of the prodigal son for me real quick? its for a
friend. lol&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/preview&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
MADRE: hey dad, drop dead. i want my inheritance now./ouch. ok, here you go,
don't spend it all in one place/(son burns thru it and ends up living off pig
slop)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
MADRE: (son thinks this stinks, at least i had food at dad's, maybe if i go back
he won't kick my butt and i can work for him if he doesn't want me to be his son
anymore)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
MADRE: son sucks it up and goes home. dad has been waiting and watching for him
to come back and is happy to see him, welcomes him with open arms and has a big
bbq party.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
MADRE: the end.&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;i&gt;&lt;font size=&quot;2&quot;&gt;(Yes, that's even what my phone looks like.&amp;nbsp; Isn't it
cool??)&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/p&gt;</description>
