Drinking Together
A cowboy walks into a bar in Texas, orders three mugs
of beer and sits in the back room, drinking a sip out of
each one in turn. When he finishes them, he comes back
to the bar and orders three more.
The bartender approaches and tells him, “You know,
a mug goes flat after I draw it, it would taste better if
you bought one at a time.”
The cowboy replies, “Well, you see, I have two brothers.
One is in Australia, the other is in Dublin, and I’m in Texas.
When we all left home, we promised that we’d drink this
way to remember the days we drank together. So I drink
one for each o’ my brothers and one for myself.”
The bartender admits that this is a nice custom,
and leaves it there.
The cowboy becomes a regular in the bar, and always
drinks the same way. He orders three mugs and drinks
them in turn.
One day, he comes in and orders two mugs. All the
regulars take notice and fall silent. When he comes
back to the bar for the second round, the bartender
says,
“I don’t want to intrude on your grief, but I wanted
to offer my condolences on your loss.”
The cowboy looks quite puzzled for a moment,
then a light dawns and he laughs.
“Oh, no, everybody’s just fine,” he explains. “It’s just that
my wife had us join that Mormon Church and I had to
quit drinking. Hasn’t affected my brothers though!”

Careful What You Wish For
A government employee sat in his office, and out of
boredom, decided to see what was inside his old filing
cabinet. He poked through the contents and came
across an old brass lamp.
“This will look good on my mantel,” he said, and took
it home with him.
While polishing the lamp, a genie appeared and,
as usual, granted him three wishes.
“I would like an ice-cold Coke right now.” He gets
his Coke and drinks it.
Now that he can think more clearly, he states his
second wish. “I wish to be on an island with beautiful
women, who find me irresistible.”
Suddenly, he’s on an island with gorgeous women
eyeing him lustfully. He tells the genie his third and
last wish. “I wish I’d never have to work again.”
Instantly, he was back in his government office…
