After several drinks, one of the men had to use the rest room. Those who remained talked about their kids.<br \/>\nThe first guy said, &#8220;My son is my pride and joy. He started working at a successful company at the bottom of the barrel.  He studied Economics and Business Administration and soon began to climb the corporate ladder and now he&#8217;s the president of the company. He became so rich that he gave his best friend a top of the line Mercedes for his birthday.&#8221;<br \/>\nThe second guy said, &#8220;Darn, that&#8217;s terrific! My son is also my pride and joy. He started working for a big airline, and then went to flight school to become a pilot. Eventually he became a partner in the company,<br \/>\nwhere he owns the majority of its assets. He&#8217;s so rich that he gave his best friend a brand new jet for his birthday.&#8221;<br \/>\nThe third man said: &#8220;Well, that&#8217;s terrific! My son studied in the best universities and became an engineer.  Then he started his own construction company and is now a multimillionaire.

What about your son?&#8221;<br \/>\nThe fourth man replied: &#8220;My son is gay and makes a living dancing as a stripper at a nightclub.&#8221;<br \/>\nThe three friends said: &#8220;What a shame..what a disappointment. &#8221;<br \/>\nThe fourth man replied: &#8220;No, I&#8217;m not ashamed. He&#8217;s my son and I love him. And he hasn&#8217;t done too bad either.<br \/>\nHis birthday was two weeks ago, and he received a beautiful 30,000 square foot mansion, a brand new jet and a top of the line Mercedes from his three boyfriends.&#8221; <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Four friends, who hadn&#8217;t seen each other in 30 years, reunited at a party.
