Two well-dressed ladies happened to start up a conversation during an endless wait in the Brisbane Airport Terminal.
The first lady was an arrogant Victorian married to a wealthy business man. The second was a well-mannered elderly woman from Mount Isa, Queensland.
After a little while the Victorian woman started by saying, “When my first child was born, my husband built a beautiful mansion for me.”
The lady from Mount Isa commented, “Well, isn’t that fantastic?”
The first woman continued, “When my second child was born, my husband bought me a beautiful Mercedes-Benz again, the lady from Mount Isa commented, “Well, isn’t that fantastic?”
The first woman went on, “Then, when my third child was born, my husband bought me this exquisite diamond bracelet.”
Yet again, the Mount Isa lady commented, “Well, isn’t that fantastic?”
The first woman then asked, “What did your husband buy for you when you had your first child?”
“My husband sent me to charm school,” declared the Mount Isa lady.
“Charm school?” the first woman cried, “What on earth could they teach you?”
--Wife had delivered twins --
The young wife went into labor while her husband was overseas serving in the war. The next day he got the news that his wife had delivered twins. He got to a phone and called her right away.
“Oh honey, I’m so happy,” he said. “Who took you to the hospital?”
“Your brother, Joe, drove me, and since I had to be anesthetized he named the twins.”
The husband was horrified but, Joe is an idiot! Oh no! What did he name them?”
The wife answered, “We have a girl and a boy
Joe named the girl Deniece.”
The husband interrupted, “Well, that’s not so bad what did he name the boy?”
“Joe named the boy De-nephew.”
