Four men got together to play golf one sunny morning. As they were
heading out to the course, one of them was detained by a phone call. The
other three were discussing their children while walking to the first
tee. "My son," said one proudly, "has made quite a name for himself in
the home building industry. He began as a carpenter, but now owns his
own design and construction firm. He's so successful, in fact in the
last year he was able to give a good friend a brand new home as a gift."
The second man, not to be outdone, boasts how his son began his career
as a car salesman, but now owns a multi-line dealership. "He's so
successful, in fact, in the last six months he gave a friend two brand
new cars as a gift." The third man brags that his son has worked his way
up through a stock brokerage firm, and has become so successful that in
the last few weeks has given a good friend a large stock portfolio as a
gift. As the fourth man arrives at the tee box, the three smugly tell
him that they have been discussing how successful their progeny are, and
ask what line of work his son is in. "To tell the truth, I'm not very
pleased how my son has turned out," he replies. "For fifteen years, he's
been a hairdresser, and I've just recently discovered he's gay." As the
other three recoil in horror, he continues, "but on the bright side, he
must be good at what he does, because his last three boyfriends have
given him a brand new house, two new cars, and a big stock portfolio."
