My friend went on a vacation for a week and asked me to take care of his place for him.
Everything was going fine, for the most part. On the third morning he gave me a call and asked: "So how is everything going?" "The house is fine," I said, "but your cat died." "Wha . . .?" click, he hung up on me. Later that day my friend called back and said, "Sorry I hung up on you. I was just so distraught. It really ruined my day. I wish you had given me the news a little more slowly. "How's that?" I asked. "��Well, maybe you could have told me that my cat had climbed on the roof and wouldn'��t come down." Then tomorrow you could have told me you were trying to get him down, but he wouldn'��t budge. The next day you could have said he'��s not eating, then the following that he had died. At least it wouldn't be so shocking. "OK, sorry. Next time I'll know better." He said, "��It's OK, I know you didn'��t mean it." "So how's my mom?" "She's climbed on the roof and I can't get her down." |

Oh, wait. I simply read this thread's title. Perhaps I should read the OP, too. |

What scare tactices did you use too get her up there? |

All he had to do was say to her, "Do NOT climb up on the roof." So it is possible his mother-in-law was considering suicide due to her son-in-law, or her babysitter? |

Are we taking a fictional joke too seriously? |
