A friend was talking to a young girl in a school in WV.

  Friend: What would you like to do when you grow up?
  Girl: I wanna draw, like my daddy.
  Friend: Wonderful, is your daddy an artist?
  Girl: Naw, he draws a check every month.
(ie, her dad receives some type of welfare check every month (perhaps disability, unemployment, etc.), and this is what she aspires to do)
