It’s been ages. Where have you been? Too busy to pick up a phone and call your mother? Y: Sorry, Mom. I was out of town on business. JM: What? They don’t have phones where you do business? Y: No. It’s just that… JM: You have been seeing that Catholic girl again, haven’t you. Oy, vey. My heart. I can hardly breathe. Why do you do this to me? What ever happend to that nice girl, Sylvia Goldenberg? Y: Mom. She died a year ago. I told you that. JM: Give her a call. I am sure that she would be thrilled to hear from you. Y: MOM! JM: What?
