Be Discreet

6 retired Floridian were playing poker in the condo clubhouse when Conway lost $500 on a single hand. As soon as the hand was finished, he clutched his chest and dropped dead at the table. Showing respect for their fallen comrade, the other five continued playing, but standing up.

Finally, Hendricks asked, "So who's going to tell his wife?"

They drew straw and Thompson picked the short one. They told him to be discreet, be gentle, and don't make a bad situation any worse.

"Discreet?!!? I'm the most discreet person you'll ever meet. Discretion is my middle name – leave it to me!!" Exclaimed Thompson.

He then went over to the Conway apartment, and knocked on the door. The wife answered and asked what he wanted, to which Thompson declared, "Your husband just lost $500 playing poker and he's afraid to come home tonight."

The wife, upset replied, "Then tell him to drop dead!!"

"Ok, I will." And Thompson turned and left.
