my nephew got lucky im not his dad

I was hanging out at the inlaws last night when my sister in laws phone rings

* hello?

*yeah?

*YOU DID WHAT? WHERE ARE YOU?

*OK, fine.

(she hangs up)

so I say, whats wrong?
(thinking he killed someone the way she reacted)

apparently he ran out of gas (the kids is 16)

so I say, don't worry, ill run out there
I call him up and he tells me where hes at

now, he's only 2-3 miles from a gas station
a brisk walk for a kid his age shouldn't take more then an hour and a half and I garantuee you he wont run it dry again if he has that much time to think about it

so I explain to the miss's that if he were our boy (ours is 5) I would drive out there with an EMPTY jerrycan and wish him the best of luck

luckily for my nephew I was told "well, you aren't his dad"


so I brought him 2 gallons of gas :wack:
