A Christmas Story

I was surfing the Internet when I came across this short story, and I feel that it ought to be shared.

//
I've just laughed my socks off: An elderly man in Oklahoma calls his son in New York and says, "I hate to ruin your day son, but I have to tell you that your mother and I are getting a divorce; 45 years of marriage... and that much misery is enough!"

"Dad, what are you talking about?" the son yells.

"We can't stand the sight of each other any longer," the old dad explained. "We're sick of each other, and I'm sick of talking about this, so you call your sister in Hong Kong and tell her!"

Frantic, the son calls his sister, who explodes on the phone.

"Like heck they're getting divorced," she shouts. "I'll take care of this." She calls her elderly father immediately, and screams at him, "You are not getting divorced. Don't do a single thing until I get there. I'm calling my brother back, and we'll both be there tomorrow. Until then, don't do a thing, you hear me?" she yelled as she hung up the phone.

The old man hangs up his phone and turns to his wife. "Okay", he says, "it's all set. They're both coming for Christmas and paying their own air-fare."

Addiction

Currently addicted to this drink.
I am currently addicted to a few things, such as:-
1) My laptop
2) Facebook
3) Maple Story
4) Bundaberg Root Beer
5) Starbucks
6) Bundaberg Lemon Lime & Bitters and
7) FOOD.

As much as I hate to admit this, this has got to stop. But when, and how should I accomplish this?

The Reason of Keeping a Person Alive

I can never understand how keeping a person alive matters so much to everybody, when they failed to let that person be happy. I can also never understand why married couple want to have children when they successfully failed to carry out their duties in protecting their children, who are dangerously vulnerable especially when they're young, and to nurture them with care, affection, and the principles of life. In the end, without even being cynical, the answer is pretty obvious; everybody doesn't want to be left alone, especially in the state of sadness. Everyone takes things for granted, and few could comprehend the idea of being isolated, yet everybody don't want to be alone, because they ARE afraid of being alone. It's especially hard for me to congratulate someone for having to become parents to their newborn child, and I find it unforgivable when they ever isolate their kids wherever they go.
