A doctor was
having an affair with his nurse. Shortly afterward, she told him
that she was pregnant. Not wanting his wife to know, he gave the
nurse a sum of money and asked her to go to Italy and have the
baby there.
"But how will I let
you know the baby is born?" she asked.
He replied, "Just send
me a postcard and write "spaghetti" on the back. I'll
take care of expenses." Not knowing what else to do, the
nurse took the money and flew to Italy.
Six months went by, and
then one day the doctor's wife called him at the office and
said, "Dear, you received a very strange postcard in the
mail today from Europe, and I don't understand what it means."
The doctor said, "Just wait until I get home and I will
explain it to you."
Later that evening
the doctor came home, read the postcard, and fell to the floor
with a heart attack. Paramedics rushed him to the hospital emergency
room. The head medic stayed back to comfort the wife. He asked
what trauma had precipitated the cardiac arrest.
So the wife
picked up the card and read: "Spaghetti, Spaghetti, Spaghetti,
Spaghetti - Two with sausage and meatballs; two without."
