A man and an ostrich walk into a restaurant. The waiter asks, "What will it be?" The man replied, "A burger and a coke." "And you?" "I'll have the same," the ostrich replies. They finish their meal and pay. "That will be $4.50," The man reached into his pocket and pulled out the exact amount. They do this every day till Friday. "The usual?" the waiter asks. "No, today is Friday. I'll have steak and a coke." "Me too." says the ostrich. They finish and pay. "That will be $10.95" The man reached in and pulls out the exact amount again just like all week. The waiter was dumb-founded. "How is it that you always have the exact amount?" "Well," says the man. "I was cleaning my attic and I found a dusty lamp. I rubbed it and a genie appeared." Wow!" said the waitress. "What did you wish for?" "I asked that when
I needed to pay for something, the exact amount would appear in my
pocket." "Amazing! Most people would ask for a million
dollars. But what's with the ostrich?" "Well," said the
man. "I also asked for a chick with long legs." |
