ROTFL! So, here's the test: was his girlfriend bright enough to pick up on the blunder? If not, maybe he should be re-thinking the whole relationship. ;)

You know, I'm not really sure if she did, but she may have just been keeping a straight face to make him feel better. I can't decide what's better to hope for -- that she's oblivious enough to have not caught on or that she did but was just nice enough to fake it well.

Normally I would not think a child giving their mother the slow drop dead glare understanding or reasonable, but, in this case it is lucky that's all that happened! ;-)

Would this be the son who already thinks you've destroyed Christmas by getting a plastic tree? Or are you going for the two in one season special this year?

You're hilarious.

LOL, serves him right for telling you in the first place. I bet if he hadn't said don't say anything, you probably wouldn't have, but now that it was on your mind that was the first thing that came out.

It could be worse. My parents tipped my hand the week I proposed to the Feared Redhead, to whom I am now happily married.

That's hilarious! But then I've been told I've got a sick sense of humor. :)
