A wealthy man was having an affair with an Italian woman for several years.
One night, during one of their rendezvous,
she confided in him that she was pregnant. Not wanting to ruin his
reputation or his marriage, he would pay her a large
sum of money if she would go to Italy to secretly have the child. If she
stayed in Italy to raise the child, he would also
provide child support until the child turned 18. She agreed, but asked how

for child support payments to begin.

One day, about 9 months later, 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," he said.
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...
