Father, Entertainer, Friend

My parents are leaving for vacation in the morning. My brother just told me via IM that at some point today the power went out at their house and my dad said, "What if the power goes out during the night and we don't get up in time and miss our flight?"

I knew exactly how my brother would reply to this and sure enough he told him, "Don't worry Dad, I'll set the alarm on my cell phone."

Dad comes back with, "You better put it right next to your head."

Anyone that knows my father can appreciate the humor in this little story. Since my friend Brian knows him I copied it and IMed it to him. Whadda ya know, he was on the phone with my dad at the time and actually heard that conversation.
