幽默笑话:节约的父亲

When we got our long-distance phone bill，we found that our daughter，Cathy，had been making 60-minute calls to a boyfriend away at college.“From now on，”her father said firmly，“Your calls are limited to five minutes.”

“Dad，what can I say in five minutes?” Cathy wailed¹.

“Call me back，”he answered.

当长途电话帐单送到时，我们发现，我们的女儿凯茜给她在外地上学的男朋友，聊过整整一个钟头的电话。

“从现在开始，”她爸爸说，“你打电话不能超过5分钟。”

“爸爸，五分钟够我说什么话？”女儿抗议道。

“够你说‘给我打过来’。”他爸爸回答。
