An older gentleman was on the operating table awaiting surgery and he
insisted that his son, a renowned surgeon, perform the operation.
As he was about to get the anesthesia
he asked to speak to his son.
"Yes, Dad, what is it? "
"Don't be nervous, son; do your best and just remember, if it doesn't go
well, if something happens to me, your mother is going to come and live with
you and your wife...."
