Four guys have been golfing together for years. Throughout
the years, they have discussed various aspects of their lives,
with one exception: they never talk about their sons. This is
because one of the men has a son who is a flaming,
out-of-the-closet homosexual, and the other men don't want
to make him feel uncomfortable.
One week, however, the man with the gay son is late to the
country club, so the other three are sitting around the table
and inevitably start talking about their sons.
"MY son," says the first man, "is in the jewellery business,
and he is doing exceptionally well. In fact last week he actually
gave away a gold chain!"
"Ah, that's nothing," says the second one, "My son is in the
boat business, and he has been so successful lately that last week
he gave one of his friends a brand new speedboat!"
The third man says: "My son is a car salesman, and has been doing
some incredible business. Just last week, he GAVE a friend of his a
brand new Mercedes!"
Just then the fourth man walks in and the other three turn silent.
The man sits down with them and says, "You know, I've never spoken
to you about my son. In fact, I never thought he would amount to
anything, but just last week, three of his lovers gave him a gold chain,
a speedboat and a Mercedes!"
