"A Naval Affair"

A Naval Officer was having an affair with an Italian mistress while stationed in Naples. One night, during one of their rendezvous, she confided in him that she was pregnant. Not wanting to ruin his career or his marriage, he would pay her a large sum of money if she would have the child secretly when he went back to the states and she stayed in Italy. He would also provide child support until the child turned 18. She agreed, but asked how he would know when the baby was born. To keep it discrete, he told her to simply mail him a post card, and write "Spaghetti" on the back. He would then arrange for child support payments to begin.

One day after returning to the states, he came home to his confused wife.

His wife said …

"Honey, you received a very strange post card today."

"Oh, just give it to me and I'll explain it,"

The wife handed him the card and watched as her husband read the card, turned white and collapsed. On the card was written:

"Spaghetti, Spaghetti, Spaghetti. Two with meatballs, one without! Request bread."
