A typical Family

After 48 years of marriage, an elderly Sindhi man in Bombay calls his son in New York and says, "I hate to ruin your day son, but I have to tell you that your mother and I are getting a divorce; 45 years of misery is enough!" "Dad, what are you talking about?" the son screams."We can't stand the sight of each other any longer,"the old man says. "We're sick of each other, and I'msick of talking about this, so you call your sister in Hong Kong and tell her!"Frantic, the son calls his sister, who explodes on the phone. "Like heck they're getting divorced," she shouts, "I'll take care of this." She calls Bombay immediately, and screams at the old man, "You are not getting divorced! Don't do a single thing until I getthere. I'm calling my brother back, and we'll both be there tomorrow. Until then, don't do a thing, DO YOUHEAR??" and she hangs up.The old man hangs up his phone and turns to his wife."Okay", he says, "It's all set. They're both comingfor Diwali and paying their own airfare!!"
