A Story from a Friend

Aug 29, 2005

My friends, Mr. and Mrs. Alpha (who have four children under the age of 7, including a newborn), invited Mr. & Mrs. Beta (who have five children of approximately the same age) to spend a long weekend with them. This made a total of 13 souls in a single home! 13!

Then, one of the Beta children becomes sick....you know where this is going. Before the end of the visit, each member of each family succumbs to a nasty stomach virus - which lasts for days.

Excluding the fathers.

How DID Mr. Alpha and Mr. Beta get so lucky? The mind boggles.

Not so sure they were the lucky ones - they presumably had to clean up all the stomach flu messes of the other 11 people? Ugh!

Very true. Mr. Alpha and Mr. Beta are both very good husbands to their wives.
