  • Success is relative, especially if your relative is a son

    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 lavatory. Those who remained, talked about their children.

    The first man 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 man said, "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 gents 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's lucky, too. His birthday just passed and the other day, he received a beautiful 30,000 square foot mansion, a brand new jet and a top of the line Mercedes from his three boyfriends."

        Reminds me of another joke, very old school British..

        Three servicemen sit in a compartment on a train and proceed to introduce themselves in their manner:

        First Soldier: Smythe-Bellows here. Brigadier. Married, son and daughter, son's a barrister.

        Second Soldier: Snowden here. Brigadier. Married, two sons, one a doctor and one an MP.

        Third Soldier: Bixby here. Sargent-Major. Never Married. Two sons, both Brigadiers.

          I don't get it KvH. Is the third soldier the father of the first two?

            He's saying brigadiers are bastards in as roundabout way as he can get away with.

            Wow.. maybe this is just too old for people nowadays to get..

              Why is he insulting these brigadiers that he just met? Do brigadiers have a bad reputation?
