Spaghetti

A wealthy man was having an affair with an Italian
woman for a few years.

One night, during one of their rendezvous, she
confided in him that she was pregnant.

Not wanting to ruin his reputation or his marriage,
he paid her a large sum of money if she would go
to Italy to have the child. If she stayed in Italy,
he would also provide child support until the child
turned 18.

She agreed, but wondered how he would know when the
baby was born. To keep it discrete, he told her to
mail him a post card, and write "Spaghetti" on the
back. He would then arrange for child support.

One day, about 9 months later, he came home to his
confused wife.

"Honey," she said, "you received a very strange post
card today."

"Oh, just give it to me and I'll explain it
later," he said.


The wife obeyed, and watched as her husband read
the card, turned white, and fainted.




On the card was written "Spaghetti, Spaghetti,
Spaghetti. Two with meatballs, one without."
