An old man calls his son and says, "Listen, your mother and I are getting a divorce. Forty-five years of misery is more than enough for anyone."
"Wait, Dad, what are you talking about?" the son yells, completely shocked.
"We just can't stand each other anymore," the old man says, his voice firm. "I'm tired of looking at her, and I don't want to discuss it. Call your sister and break the news to her," and he hangs up.
The son, now in a panic, immediately calls his sister. She explodes, "Like heck they are!". She calls their father right back. "You are NOT getting divorced! Don't you dare do a single thing. We are both flying home first thing tomorrow to sort this out. Do not call a lawyer. Do not file a single paper. DO YOU HEAR ME?" She slams the phone down.
The old man hangs up, turns to his wife, and says, "Okay, they're both coming for Christmas and paying their own airfares."
