After the sixth shot, he asks the bartender for the bill, pays and starts to walk out.

The bartender says, "Look, Mac, it's New Year's Eve, and I know we're both depressed, and I certainly don't mean to bug you, but my curiosity is "killing" me.
Why do you keep pouring the shots in your pocket? And if you be givin' me a hard time, I'll be breaking your bloody face! Lucky Saucer A famous art collector is walking through the city when he notices a mangy cat lapping milk from a saucer in the doorway of a store and he does a double take. He recognizes that the saucer is extremely old and very valuable, so he walks casually into the store and offers to buy the cat for two dollars.
The storeowner replies "I'm sorry, but the cat isn't for sale. The collector says, "Please, I need a hungry cat around the house to catch mice. I'll pay you twenty dollars for that cat. The collector continues, "Hey, for the twenty bucks I wonder if you could throw in that old saucer.
The cat's used to it and it'll save me from having to get a dish. So far this week I've sold sixty-eight cats. As it happened, a friend whom I have been promising to take out to lunch, asked if we could go a couple days before Thanksgiving Day. So, hopping into the car, I taped my list to the dashboard and went and picked her up. As she settled into the car, her face dropped. Then I glanced at my list and saw the first item: Someone has stated that the three phrases that best sum up the Christmas season are: Peace on Earth 2. Goodwill to men 3. In a small Texas town there was a Nativity scene that showed great skill and talent had gone into creating it.
One small feature bothered me. The three wise men were wearing firemen's helmets. Totally unable to come up with a reason or explanation, I left. At a diner on the edge of town, I asked the lady behind the counter about the helmets. She looked skeptically at me, "You Yankees never do read the Bible! She jerked her Bible from behind the counter and ruffled through some pages, and finally jabbed her finger at a passage. Sticking it in my face she said, "See, it says right here, 'The three wise men came from afar.
As a little boy climbed onto Santa's lap, Santa asked the usual, "And what would you like for Christmas? Here we shall return to a true classic dish of alternative fine dining. The list of ingredients is as follows: Fresh garlic, lbs. Brown the diced elves in the same pan until lightly browned. Mix the vegetables, elves, bread crumbs, and the chicken stock, season to taste with pepper, salt and garlic to taste.
Stuff the dressing in the reindeer, then sew the deer shut. As for roasting the whole reindeer; it is usually difficult to find to an oven large enough to do the job. So you will have to be creative. My personal favourite is to prop the reindeer up on a neighbor kids wagon. Then roll the whole shebang into the local grouches garage and set fire to the garage. If you can keep the local fire department at bay for hours the reindeer will be perfectly done. This recipe will serve hearty alternatively inclined diners.
Never hunt elves in the same area each year. They have long memories for such little beasties and they won't fall for the vodka trick twice in two years. On a famous TV game show a blonde contestant needed only to answer one more question. And if you ever saw it, you would even say it glowed. The cookies I'd nibbled, the eggnog I'd taste At the holiday parties had gone to my waist.
When I got on the scales there arose such a number! When I walked to the store less a walk than a lumber. I'd remember the marvelous meals I'd prepared; The gravies and sauces and beef nicely rared, The wine and the rum balls, the bread and the cheese And the way I'd never said, "No thank you, please. I won't have a cookie--not even a lick. I'll want only to chew on a long celery stick. I won't have hot biscuits, or corn bread, or pie, I'll munch on a carrot and quietly cry. I'm hungry, I'm lonesome, and life is a bore But isn't that what January is for?
Unable to giggle, no longer a riot. Happy New Year to all and to all a good diet! The pastor of the church was looking at the manger scene, when he noticed that the baby Jesus figure was missing from the cradle. He immediately turned and went outside and saw a little boy with a red wagon walking down the street. And in the wagon, was the figure of the infant Jesus. So he walked up to the boy and said, "Son, where did you get that little baby Jesus that's in your wagon? I told him if he would bring me a red wagon for Christmas, I would give him a ride around the block in it.
His look and his tone I will always remember, When he told me of the horrors of Then she'll pluck out all of your feathers so you're bald 'n pink, And scoop out all your insides and leave ya lyin in the sink; And then comes the worst part, he was not bluffing, She'll spread your cheeks and pack your rear with stuffing.
I began a new diet of nuts and granola, High-roughage salads, juice and diet cola; And as they ate pastries, chocolates and crepes, I stayed in my room doing Jane Fonda tapes. I maintained my weight of two pounds and a half, And tried not to notice when the bigger birds laughed; But 'twas I who was laughing, under my breath, As they chomped and they chewed, ever closer to death. And sure enough when Black November rolled around, I was the last turkey in the entire compound; So now I'm a pet in the farmer's wife's lap; I haven't a worry, so I eat and I nap.
She held me today, while sewing and humming, And smiled at me and said, "Christmas is coming Last year I had my chance to do the traditional thing of shooting my own turkey for Thanksgiving. Man, you should have seen the people scatter in the meat department! An industrious turkey farmer was always experimenting with breeding to perfect a better turkey. His family was fond of the leg portion for dinner and there were never enough legs for everyone.
After many frustrating attempts, the farmer was relating the results of his efforts to his friends at the general store get together. I bred a turkey that has 6 legs! A young boy after hearing the story of Thanksgiving and how the Indians and the Pilgrims sat down together,climbed up into his father's lap and said, "Daddy, did you know that if we were Indians, you would be a brave and Mom would be a squawk? I ate too much Turkey, I ate too much corn, I ate too much pudding and pie. I'm stuffed up with muffins and too much stuffin' I'm probably going to die.
I piled up my plate and I ate and I ate. But I wish I had known when to stop, For I'm so crammed with yams, sauces, gravies, and jams That my buttons are starting to pop! I'm full of tomatoes and french fried potatoes My stomach is swollen and sore, But there's still some dessert so I guess it won't hurt if I eat just a little bit more! Author Unknown http: Why was the whole world concerned when the server dropped the platter of Turkey?
Because it meant the fall of Turkey, the ruin of Greece, and the break up of China! Why did the pilgrim eat a candle? Because he wasn't very hungry and wanted a light snack. Twas the night of Thanksgiving, But I just couldn't sleep. I tried counting backwards, I tried counting sheep; The leftovers beckoned The dark meat and white, But I fought the temptation with all of my might.
Tossing and turning with anticipation The thought of a snack became infatuation So I raced to the kitchen, Flung open the door, And gazed at the fridge full of goodies galore. I gobbled up turkey and buttered potatoes, Pickles and carrots, beans and tomatoes. I felt myself swelling so plump and so round, Till all of a sudden, I rose off the ground!! I crashed through the ceiling Floating into the sky With a mouthful of pudding and a handful of pie, But I managed to yell as I soared past the trees There's no "Kathy Lee Gifford Special" 9.

Obviously, the ride up the steep cliff in that basket was terrifying. One tourist got exceedingly nervous about half-way up as he noticed that the rope by which he was suspended was old and frayed. With a trembling voice, he asked the monk who was riding with him in the basket how often they changed the rope. The monk thought for a moment and answered brusquely, "Whenever it breaks.
A magician was working on a cruise ship in the Caribbean. The audience would be different each week, so the magician allowed himself to do the same tricks over and over again. There was only one problem: The captain's parrot saw the shows each week and began to understand how the magician did every trick.
Once he understood he started shouting in the middle of the show: One day the ship had an accident and sank. The magician found himself on a piece of wood in the middle of the ocean with the parrot, of course. They stared at each other with hate, but did not utter a word. This went on for a day and another and another. After a week the parrot said: A blonde holding a baby walks into a drug store and asks the clerk if she can use the store's baby scale. But we can figure the baby's weight if we weigh mother and baby together on the adult scale, and then weigh the mother alone, and subtract the second number from the first.
A man recently saw a distraught young person weeping beside his car. The person replied, "I knew I should have replaced the battery in this remote door unlocker. Now I can't get into my car.

This door-to-door entrepreneur became rather bored with his job of selling Bibles, so he decided to become a boss, hiring three people to sell Bibles for him. He interviewed three people. The first came in and said, "I want to sell Bibles for you. Here's your kit, go sell!
Here's your kit; go sell! You can't sell Bibles for me!

These tips will help crush the competition, get you in the door and put you behind a desk making 50 big ones, plus bonus.
Use the name to your advantage. Spice it up a little bit. Steve Smith goes nowhere fast. But Sir Stephen Smith -- now that might turn a few heads. Mark "Keyboards" O'Malley is good. Mark "Kegsucker" O'Malley is bad. Forget your real address. Make a statement instead! Saying you're from the Bronx suggests you're tough as nails. Anyplace in Japan implies you believe in an hour-a-day work ethic! What are the odds they'll call -- 1, to 1. If they do, they'll probably just catch your roommate somewhere in the middle of his second six-pack.
My advice is never put your phone number on a resume unless you want to try some interesting number which might wake up a recruiter or two. Forget the ambition statement. You know what I mean: Don't be afraid of Yalies and PH. Be proud of where you go to school and play it straight. But just to be on the safe side, send an application to some prestigious high-tech program at a prestigious school. Until they respond, you're not lying if you list under your education credits: Even fresh out of school, you've got to have experience. But don't mention that you've invested in your own relational database or coded an object-oriented commodity trading system..
Everybody's done that stuff. I'm talking about hands-on experience: So if you're a little light in the experience area, don't tell lies. Instead, simply try a bit-more-concise explanation of the experience you do have. For example, if you worked as a cashier at Food Giant, make it, "Monitored and troubleshot retail point-of-sale bar-code inventory scanning system. What kind of power-close is that? Let me leave you instead with this recommendation: Close with a line they'll remember, like "Please, please give me a job.
And by the way, I know where you live. To keep peace, I ate dinner with the rest of the family and even lingered for some pleasant after-dinner conversation before retiring to the family room to turn on the game. Several minutes later, my wife came downstairs and graciously even brought a cold drink for me with her. She smiled, kissed me on the cheek and sweetly asked, "What is the score?
The e-mails were stacked by the modem with care, In hopes that St. Nicholas soon would be there. The newbies were nestled all snug by their screens, While visions of Java danced in their dreams. My wife on the sofa and me with a snack, We just settled down at my rig it's a Mac. When out in the Web there arose such a clatter, I jumped to the site to see what was the matter.
To a new page my Mac flew like a flash, Then made a slight gurgle. It started to crash!! I gasped at the thought and started to grouse, Then turned my head sideways and clicked on my mouse. When what to my wondering eyes should appear, My Mac jumped to a page that wasn't quite clear.
