Reunion

Four friends, who hadn't see each other in 30 years, reunited at a party.

After several drinks, one of them went to the rest room. Those who remained. talked about their kids.

The first guy said, "My son is my pride. He started working at a successful company. Now he's the president of the company. He became so rich that he gave his best friend a Mercedes for his birthday."

The second guy said, "That's terrific! My son is also my pride. He started working for a big airline, and then went to flight school to become a pilot.  Eventually he became a partner of the company, where he owned the majority of its assets. He's so rich that he gave his best friend a new jet for his birthday."

The third man said, "My son studied in the best university and became an engineer. Then he started his own construction company and he's now a millionaire. He also gave away something very nice and expensive to his best friend for his birthday, a 30,000 square foot mansion."

The three friends congratulated each other just as the fourth returned from the restroom and asked, "What are all the congratulations for?"

One of the three said, "We are talking about the pride we feel for the success our sons. What about your son?"

The forth man replied, "My son is a gay and makes a living as a stripper at a nightclub."

The three friends said, "What a shame!"

The fourth man replied, "No, I'm not ashamed. He's my son and I love him. Yesterday was his birthday. He received a 30,000 square foot mansion, a new jet and a new Mercedes from his three boyfriends!!"
