| Half
Sister

One Sunday morning George burst into the living room and
said, "Dad! Mom! I have some great news for you! I
am getting married to the most beautiful girl in town. She
lives a block away and her name is Susan.
After dinner, George's dad took him aside, "Son, I
have to talk with you." "Look at your mother,
George. She and I have been married 30 years, she's a wonderful
wife and mother, but, she has never offered much excitement
in the bedroom, so I used to fool around with women a lot.
Susan is actually your half sister, and I'm afraid you can't
marry her."
George was broken-hearted. After eight months he eventually
started dating girls again. A year later he came home and
very proudly announced, "Dianne said yes! We're getting
married in June."
Again his father insisted on another private conversation
and broke the sad news. "Dianne is your half sister
too, George. I'm awfully sorry about this."
George was livid! He finally decided to go to his mother
with the news his father had shared.
"Dad has done so much harm. I guess I'm never going
to get married," he complained. "Every time I
fall in love, dad tells me the girl is my half sister."
"Heheh," his mother chuckled, shaking her head,
"don't pay any attention to what he says. He's not
really your father."
