An elderly man in Chicago calls his son in New York and says, I hate to ruin your day, but I have to tell you that your mother and I are divorcing; 45 years of misery is more than I can stand. <br /><br />Dad, what are you talking about? the son screams. <br /><br />We cant stand the sight of each other any longer, the old man says. Were sick of each other, and Im sick of talking about this, so you call your sister in Los Angeles and you tell her. <br /><br />Frantic, the son calls his sister. She explodes on the phone. Baloney. Were not letting them get divorced, she screams, were going to take care of this. <br /><br />She calls Chicago immediately, and screams at her father, You are NOT getting divorced. Dont do a single thing until I get there. Im calling my brother back, and well both be there tomorrow. Until then, dont do a thing, DO YOU HEAR ME? and she hangs up. <br /><br />The old man hangs up his phone, turns to his wife, and says. Okay, theyre coming for Thanksgiving and theyre paying their own fares...now what do we do for Christmas?
