A man in Phoenix calls his son in New York City two days before Thanksgiving. “I hate to ruin your day, but I have to tell you that your mother and I are divorcing," he says. "Forty-five years is enough.” “Pop, what are you talking about?” the son screams. “We can’t stand the sight of each other any longer,” the father says. “I’m sick of talking about this, so you call your sister in Chicago and tell her.” Frantic, the son calls his sister, who explodes on the phone. “Like heck they’re getting divorced,” she shouts. “I’ll take care of this!” She calls her parents immediately, and screams at her father, “You are NOT getting divorced. Don’t do a single thing until I get there. I’m calling my brother back, and we’ll both be there tomorrow. Until then, don’t do a thing!” The father hangs up his phone and turns to his wife. “OK,” he says, “The kids are coming for Thanksgiving and paying their own way.”

This is the best thing I ever heard! Finally..pay back!

Definately one to remember for the future....

Gotta be better than all those calls when WE ask "OK how much is THIS going to cost me?"

I'll save it as a ploy for the grandchildren - if I get any!!!
