Dying

"Dying"

A son and father went to see a doctor since the
father was getting very ill. The doctor told the father
and son that the father was dying from cancer.

The father who was an Irishman, turned to his son
and said, "Son, even on this gloomy day, it's our
tradition to drink to health as it is in death, so let's
go to the pub and celebrate my demise."

Reluctantly, the son follows his father to the local pub.
There, while enjoying their ale, the father sees some
old friends and tells them he is dying from STD.

Shocked, the son turns to his father and says, "Father,
it is not STD you are dying from, it is cancer, why did
you lie to those men?"

The father replies, "Aye, my son, you are right; but I don't
want those guys sleeping with your mom when I'm gone."
