Alex was asked by his mother to go shopping at the local corner store. After getting everything on the list, Alex discovered that the store was out of oranges. "Sorry, Alex" said Albert Life, the elderly shop owner, "we sold out of the oranges this morning." Alex looked depressed, saying his mother needed those oranges for a recipe. Elderly Mr. Life, pitying little Alex, walked over to the fruit stand and tossed him a pair of lemons. "Here you go, Alex" he said with a smile. "Next time you come around, I'll have those oranges for you." Alex put the lemons in his bag and walked out of the store. "When life gives you lemons..." Mr. Life quietly chuckled to himself, only to be startled by the sound of two lemons hitting his front window.
