Joke Of The Day

Divorce

An elderly man in Phoenix calls his son Bob in New York and says, "I hate to ruin your day, but your mother and I are divorcing. Forty-five years of misery is enough! I'm sick of her, and I'm sick of talking about this, so call your sister in Boston and tell her," and then hangs up.

The son frantically calls his sister, who goes nuts upon hearing the news.

She calls her father and yells, "You are not getting a divorce! Bob and I will be there tomorrow. Until then, don’t do a single thing, do you hear me?"

The father hangs up the phone, turns to his wife, and says, "It worked! The kids are coming for a visit, and they’re paying their own way!"

This is funny to me because it's pretty true around this time of season. Especially if you have kids that like to filch offa ya.

Me.

I don't think its filtching, I think its more: you owe it to me. They see it as just that the parents should dole out the cash On-Demand(R) since they were so stingy with the love and caring. You could think of it as reparations.

But for those whose parents did not teach them to respect them, the parents are reaping what they sewed.
