Guy travels to Europe for a vacation... it's his first time, he sees the sights, has a real good time... after a while he decides to call home... gets his brother on the phone and says 'so how are things back home?'
... and the brother says 'your cat died!'...
the guy says 'you shouldn't break bad news like that, you should ...... break it to me gently... like, you should say, 'the cat crawled out on the roof... chasing a squirrel... and got stuck...we had to call the fire department... the fireman climbed up and got the cat, but on the way down he slipped... the cat fell to the ground...... we had to take the cat to the vet... they tried to save the cat, they even operated... on the cat... but it was too late... they couldn't save the cat'...
that's how you should break bad news like that'...
so the guys says to his brother, 'anyway, how's mom?'...
and the brother says … 'SHE'S ON THE ROOF!'...
