I was sitting in the waiting room of the hospital after my wife had gone
into labor when the nurse walked out and said to a man sitting there,
"Congratulations sir, you're the new father of twins!"  The man replied,
"How about that!  I work for the Minnesota Twins baseball team."

About an hour later, the same nurse entered the waiting room and announced
that Mrs. Smith had just had triplets.  Mr. Smith stood up and said, "Well,
how do ya like that, I work for the 3COM Company!"

When the nurse appeared next, she told the third man that his wife had given
birth to quadruplets.  "That's amazing!  I work for the Four Seasons Hotel!"

At this point the gentleman sitting next to me let out a little strangled
gasp and hurriedly got up, obviously distraught.  When I asked him if he
was okay, he explained, "I think I need a breath of fresh air." The man
continued, "I'm the casting director for 101 Dalmations."
