A Jewish parent calls his son in New York.

The father says to David, “I hate to tell you, but your mother and I can’t stand each other anymore, and we are divorcing. That’s it!! I am telling you now, so you and your sister shouldn’t go into shock later when I move out.”

The father hangs up, and David immediately calls his sister in the Hamptons and tells her the news. The sister says, “I’ll handle this.”

The sister calls Florida and gets her father on the phone. She pleads to her father, “Don’t do ANYTHING ’til David and I get there! We will be there Friday.” The father says, “All right, all right already, we won’t.”

The father then hangs up the phone, smiles brightly and hollers to his wife, “Okay, they’re coming for the High Holidays!”
