The Four Fathers

Four fathers are out playing golf one day when one of them pops off to buy the drinks．While he’s gone the first father says，“You know，my son is doing so well in the Mercedes company that he gave one of his friends a new Merc fully loaded．”“So what？”the second father says，“My son is doing so well in the house business that he gave one of his friends a new house．”“Big deal，”says the third father．“My son is doing so well in the stock market that he gave one of his friends a whole stock portfolio．”Shortly after that，the fourth father comes back with the drinks．“What’s up？”he asks．“Oh，we were just talking about how well our sons are doing．How’s yours？”“Oh，well，he’s a dancer in a gay bar，”the fourth father admits，“but I’m not entirely against it，because three customers of his gave him a new Mercedes，a house，and a stock portfolio．”

四位父親

一天，四位父親出去打高爾夫球，其中一個離開去買飲料。他走后，一位父親說：“你們知道嗎，我兒子在奔馳公司干得很好，他送了一輛配置齊全的新奔馳車給他的朋友。”“是嗎？”第二位父親說，“我兒子房地產生意做得很出色，他送了一套新房給他的朋友。”“他們都很大方，”第三位父親說，“而我兒子在股市干得很好，因此他把一份證券投資組合全都給了一位朋友。”過了不久，第四位父親帶著飲料回來了。“談什么啊？”他問。“哦，我們正談論各自兒子的工作成就。你兒子怎么樣？”“哦，他在一家同性戀酒吧伴舞，”第四位父親毫不隱諱，“但我一點也不反對，因為他的三個顧客分別送給了他一輛奔馳，一套新房和一份證券投資組合。”
