Area Man Glad His Brother Is Giving Mom Grandkids

ROME, GA– Area resident Larry Spoerl was thrilled to learn Monday that his brother’s wife is pregnant, temporarily relieving him of the pressure to produce grandchildren for his mother. “That’s the most wonderful news I’ve heard in ages,” the 31-year-old Spoerl told brother Marc. “Now I can get through Christmas without the whole so- are- you- dating- anyone- how- serious- is- it- does- she- want- a- family interrogation.” Despite his momentary elation, Spoerl said his brother’s expected child “only buys me a year or two at best.”
