A frustrated man in his 80s, living in Florida, calls his son in New York one November day, shortly before Thanksgiving.
He says to his son, "I hate to tell you this, but we’ve got some troubles here. Your mother and I can’t stand each other anymore, and we’re getting a divorce. I want to live out the rest of my years in peace. I’m telling you now, so you and your sister won’t go into shock later when I move out."
He hangs up, and the son immediately calls his sister in the Hamptons and tells her the news. The sister says, "I’ll handle this."
She calls her father in Florida and says, "Don’t do ANYTHING until we get there! We’ll be there Wednesday night."
The father agrees, "All right."
The old man hangs up the phone, "high-fives" his wife and proudly says, "Okay, they’re coming for Thanksgiving. Now, what are we going to tell them to get them here for Christmas?"
Happy a thankful Thanksgiving!
