Spagetti A wealthy man was having an affair with a pretty Italian waitress who worked at his favorite restaurant in Brooklyn and it went on for several years. One night during one of their meetings, she confided to him that she was pregnant. Not wanting to ruin his reputation or his marriage, he offered to pay her a large sum of money if she would go to Italy to secretly have the child If she stayed in Italy to raise the child, he would also provide child support until the child turned 18 but she must never try to contact him again. She agreed, but asked how he would know when the baby was born? To keep it discreet, he told her to simply mail him a postcard and write " Spaghetti "on the back. He would then arrange for child support payments to begin. One day, about 9 months later, he came home to his confused wife. " Honey " she said, " you received a very strange postcard today." " Oh, just give it to me and I'll try to make some sense of it " he said. The wife obeyed and watched as her husband read the card, turned white and fainted. On the card was written: " Spaghetti, spaghetti, spaghetti. That's three orders: Two with meatballs and one without ! "
