2:



A lazy man's wife is on a business trip. He stays home accompanied by his son.

Son: Dad, what are we going to eat for dinner?

Dad: I think we get plenty of food in the refrigerator. There must be something to eat.

Son: There is food in the refrigerator, but we don't have anything to drink. Plus we are short of onions.

Dad: Can we just get it over tonight. I am really tired and don't want to go out.

Son: Mom is going to be back in the evening. We should have a small celebration, you know.

Dad: Oh, come on .Give me a break! All right, let's go out to buy something.

In the grocery store.

Dad: Listen, you go to pick up what you want and I am going to pick up what I need. We meet in the check-out after five minutes.

Son: All right sir!

After five minutes, Dad gets leek and fink beer while his son gets onion and coke.

Son asked Dad: Why we need leek? We get onion already. Aren't they serving for similar purpose?

Dad answered: Did you mention your mom is coming back tonight? I think she enjoys leek over onion.

Son: I forgot to tell you, she is coming back next week, not this week.

Dad: Anyway, I will take all of them. Let's go home.
