The Cat Died

[jimras]

The older brother was on vacation in Europe, and his younger brother called him

and said "Your cat died."

The older brother is in tears. "I loved that cat, I've had that cat for 20

years, you can't just blurt out bad news on the phone like that. You need to let

me know gradually. You should have called and told me the cat was on the roof,

or something. Then the next day tell me the cat still won't come down. And then

after you slowly work up to it, you can tell me the cat died."

The younger brother apologizes, and says he'll learn to be more sensitive in the

future.

"By the way," the older brother adds, "How's Mom?"

After a long silence, the younger brother says "She's up on the roof."
