a good shachris attendance

A boy, Moishe Wolfson, (name changed to protect the innocent) was going out while he was in the yeshiva dormitory. The girl's father thought that it was very important that the boy his daughter was dating should have a good shachris attendance. So he decided to call the pay phone in the yeshiva that the boy was staying and ask whoever picked up how the boy's attendance was. Unfortunately Moishe's Shachris attendance was very bad, but as luck would have it the person who picked up the phone was non other than Moishe. This was the conversation that ensued:

Father: Hello, I was wondering if you know Moishe Wolfson? I have some shidduch questions to ask.
Moishe: Moishe, sure i know him really well. I would dare say that I know him as well as I know myself.
Father: Oh good, I really only have one question. How is his shachris attendance, does he come on time.
Moishe: Mr. Schwartz, to tell you the truth i don't get up on time all that much - on the average day i am late to shachris. But I can definitely tell you this - 
WHEN EVER I'M THERE HE'S THERE!

and they went out and got married!!
