Thursday

When my brother got a divorce from his first wife, she took the dog and he kept the cats.

Then a couple of years later, she got remarried and her new husband just wasn't an "animal guy". She called my brother up and asked if he wanted her.. He said sure! He drove across a couple of states to pick her up.
