Death in the Family
JOKE OF THE WEEK, 18 Mar 2013
A man in a bar sees a friend at a table, drinking by himself.
Approaching the friend he comments, “You look terrible.
What’s the problem?”
“My mother died in June,” he said, “and left me $10,000.”
“Gee, that’s tough,” he replied.
“Then in July,” the friend continued, “My father died, leaving me $50,000.”
“Wow. Two parents gone in two months. No wonder you’re depressed.”
“And last month my aunt died, and left me $15,000.”
“Three close family members lost in three months?
How sad.”
“Then this month,” continued, the friend, “nothing!”
