A Little AFI History

This shabbos marks an anniversary for me. Parshas Yisro was the first shabbos that I spent with my wife's family in their neighborhood and at their shul. You are probably wondering how or why I remember that. The answer is very simple.
At one point over the course of the shabbos, my then, future father-in-law approached me. He was telling me how appropriate it was that Parshas Yisro was the first shabbos that I spent with them. Why? Because in Parshas Yisro, Moshe's father-in-law gives him advice and the Torah tells us, "Vayishma Moshe L'kol Chosno, Vayaas Kol Asher Amar", "And Moshe listened to his father-in-law and did everything that he said. This should be a lesson to you, dear AFI, in father-in-law/son-in-law relationships."
I looked him straight in the eye with a smirk on my face, and responded how I agreed that it truly was an appropriate shabbos for me to be with them. Why? Because shortly after the passuk that my f-i-l quoted, the Torah tells us, "Vayshalach Moshe Es Chosno, Vayelech Lo El Artzo" "And Moshe sent his father-in-law away and he, Yisro, went back to his land. True, Moshe listened to his father-in-law, but that's because in that situation, he gave him good advice. However, immediately afterwards Moshe sent Yisro packing in response to his f-i-l butting into his life. This should be a lesson to you dear future f-i-l, in father-in-law/son-in-law relationships."
