Bad Luck

Jay and Larry met for the first time in twenty years. "So, how's life been for you?" Jay asked.

"Not too good," Larry replied. "My first wife left with the plumber, Mr. Buttcrack, then my second wife turned out to be a lesbian and ran off with another woman and took all our savings ... my son's in prison for trying to kill me, my unmarried daughter got pregnant and had triplets, my house was hit by a low-flying aircraft, my vintage car rolled off the dock into the sea, I had to have my dog put down recently, my doctor says that I have an incurable social disease and to cap it all my business has just gone bust."

"Shoot, that sounds terrible," Jay said. "What business were you in?"

"I sold good luck charms," said Larry.
