Coming home
An elderly man phoned his son in Chicago. "Look," he told his son, "I hate to ruin your day but your mother and I are getting divorced. I've had it and I'm leaving! And I don't want to talk about it anymore - so you call your sister and tell her."
The son called his sister in Denver and gave her the news. When she heard about it, she went ballistic. She promptly called her father and told him, "You and Mom are not getting a divorce! Bob and I are both flying in tomorrow. Don't do anything until we get there!"
When the daughter hung up, the man turned to his wife and said, "It worked! The kids are both coming to visit - and they're paying their own way!"
