Four friends, who hadn't seen each other in 30 years, reunited at a party…
After several drinks, one of the men had to use the rest room
Those who remained talked about their kids.
The first guy said, “My son is my pride and joy
He started working at a successful company at the bottom of the barrel.
He studied Economics and Business Administration and soon began to climb the corporate ladder and now he's the president of the company
He became so rich that he gave his best friend a top of the line Mercedes for his birthday.”
The second guy said, “Damn, that's terrific! My son is also my; pride and joy
He started working for a big airline, then went to flight school to become a pilot.
Eventually he became a partner in the company, where he owns the majority of its assets He's so rich that he gave his best friend a brand new jet for his birthday.”
The third man said: “Well, that's terrific! My son studied in the best universities and became an engineer
Then he started his own construction company and is now a multimillionaire…
He also gave away something very nice and expensive to his best friend for his birthday: A 30,000 square foot mansion
The three friends congratulated each other just as the fourth returned from the restroom and asked: What are all the congratulations for?”
One of the three said: “We were talking about the pride we feel for the successes of our sons…
What about your son?”
The fourth man replied: “My son is gay and makes a living dancing as a stripper at a nightclub.”
The three friends said: “What a shame… What a disappointment.”
The fourth man replied: “No, I'm not ashamed
He's my son and I love him.
And he hasn't done too bad either
His birthday was two weeks ago, and he received a beautiful 30,000 square foot mansion, a brand new jet and a top of the line Mercedes from his three boyfriends.”
-- Joe grew up in a small town, then moved away to attend college and law school
--
He decided to come back to the small town because he could be a big man in this small town.
He really wanted to impress everyone
He opened his new law office, but business was very slow at first.
One day, he saw a man coming up the sidewalk to his office
He decided to make a big impression on this new client when he arrived.
As the man came to the door, Joe picked up the phone
He motioned the man in, all the while saying,
“No
Absolutely not
You tell those clowns in New York that I won't settle this case for less than $1 million
Yes.
The appeals court has agreed to hear that case next week
I'll be handling the primary argument, and the other members of my team will provide support.
Okay
Tell the DA that I'll meet with him next week to discuss the details.”
This sort of thing went on for almost five minutes
All the while, the man sat patiently as Joe rattled instructions
Finally, Joe put down the phone
