After World War Two had ended, an English couple adopted a young German child, Wolfgang, who had become orphaned during the war. For five years they cared for the boy and gave him all the love he ever needed, but despite their best efforts, Wolfgang never spoke a single word. Being convinced this was a result of mental trauma, they didn't make a big deal about it, and just accepted that the poor lad may never speak again. One day, the mother decided to bake Wolfgang a special treat for his birthday, a nice apple strudel. The mother and father presented the pastry to the child and wished him happy birthday. Upon tasting the delicacy, Wolfgang turned to his adopted parents and clearly said.....This Apple Strudel is Tepid! The parents were instantly shocked at the statement, and more so for the fact Wolfgang had spoken. After regaining their composure, they asked the boy why he had chosen that moment to speak after being silent for all those years. Wolfgang looked at them both with a puzzled expression on his face and simply replied.....UNTIL NOW EVERYTHING HAS BEEN SATISFACTORY!!!
