_________________________________________________________________
Four men are in the hospital waiting room because their wives are having babies. A nurse approaches the first guy & says, “Congratulations! You're the father of twins.” “That's odd,” answers the man. “I work for the Minnesota Twins!” A nurse then yells the second man, “Congratulations! You're the father of triplets!” “That's weird,” answers the second man. “I work for the 3M company!” A nurse goes up to the third man saying, “Congratulations! You're the father of quadruplets." “That's strange,” he answers. “I work for the Four Seasons hotel!” The last man begins groaning & banging his head against the wall. “What's wrong?” the others ask. “I work for 7 Up!”
