Plane Crisis

Chinese Fairy Tale:

Once upon a time a father called each of his responsible eldest children and told them to look through the e-mail saying: Whoever finds the e-mail containing your mother's flight information will inherit my fortune.

The eldest son searched but could not find anything.

The second eldest son kind of stared at the computer screen for a while and then left.

The second eldest daughter did some clicking around to no avail.

The eldest son took another shot at it.

The eldest son dragged the second eldest son back so the second eldest son could take a shot at it. The second eldest son failed.

The rest of the children ran around upstairs yelling.

The youngest daughter started crying because she thought that the "Scotland people had killed her mother."

The father found the information himself and told his three children to go jump off a cliff.

The moral of the story is that if you want your wife back in your country, you'll have to do all the work yourself. The end.

  2. Did your dad really tell you to jump off a cliff?

  3. Hmm...I guess none of you are inheriting a fortune.

    So I guess Emily didn't care if the "Scotland people" killed her sister.

  4. I sure hope my kids could find the info--because I don't want to be murdered by the Scotland people.
