My Dad and I are pleasantly discussing Chinese economic reform when he yells, "I have these fucking canaries!"
[I am unable to breathe I am laughing so hard.]
"People think it's so fucking sad not to be married that they give you canaries."
[I'm huffing, possibly puffing.]
"They're laying eggs."
I pause for a second to catch my breathe, "I thought only old ladies had canaries."
He pauses for a second to let me catch my breathe, "Then I guess you'll have a bunch."
One last pause and he admits, "I do like the way they sound".
