The Humane Thing To Do

[thongd4me 69]

The doctor, after an examination, sighed and said, 'I've got some

bad news. You have cancer, and you'd best put your affairs in order.' The

woman was shocked, but managed to compose herself and walk into the waiting

room where her daughter had been waiting. 'Well, daughter, we women

celebrate when things are good, and we celebrate when things don't go so

well. In this case, things aren't well. I have cancer. So, let's head to

the club and have a martini.'

After 3 or 4 martinis, the two were feeling a little less somber. There were

some laughs and more martinis. They were eventually approached by some of

the woman's old friends, who were curious as to what the two were

celebrating. The woman told her friends they were drinking to her impending

end, 'I've been diagnosed with AIDS.' The friends were aghast, gave the

woman their condolences and beat a hasty retreat.

After the friends left, the woman's daughter leaned over and whispered,

'Momma, I thought you said you were dying of cancer, and you just told your

friends you were dying of AIDS! Why did you do that??' 'Because I don't want

any of those women sleeping with your father after I'm gone.'

And THAT, my friends, is what is called, 'Putting Your Affairs In Order.'

THOUGHT FOR THE DAY...

Women are like phones: They like to be held, talked to, and touched often.

But push the wrong button and your #### is disconnected.
