A man and his wife were about to celebrate
50 years together. Their three kids,
all very successful and wealthy
agreed to a Sunday dinner in honor
of their parents. As usual,
they were all late
and had a varied assortment of excuses.
"Happy anniversary Mom and Dad,"
gushed son number one.
"Sorry I'm running late -- had an emergency,
you know how it is, didn't have time to get you
both a present."
"Not to worry," said the dad.
"The important thing is that we're all
together today.
Son number two arrived and announced,
"You and Mom still look great Dad.
Just flew in from LA and didn't have time
to get you a present. Sorry."
"It's nothing," said the father,
"glad you were able to be here."
Just then the daughter arrived.
"Hello you both, happy anniversary!
I'm sorry but my boss is sending me out of town and I was really busy
packing.
So I didn't have ti! me to get you guys anything."
Again the father said,
"I really don't care,
at least the five of us are together today."
During dinner, the father put down his knife
and fork, looked up and said,
"Listen you three,
there's something your mother and I
wanted to tell you for a long time.
Well, your mother and I came to this country penniless and desperate.
Despite this,
we were able to raise each of you
and send you to college.
We always knew we loved each other but --
never got around to getting married."
The three kids gasped and said,
"You mean we're BASTARDS?"
"Yep," said the Dad,
"and cheap ones too!!!!!
