The Ostrich
A man walks into a restaurant
with a full-grown ostrich behind him.
The waitress asks them for their orders.
The man says, 'A hamburger, fries and a coke,' and turns to the
ostrich, 'What's yours?'
'I'll have the same,' says the ostrich.
A short time later the waitress returns with the order 'That will be
$9.40 please,' and the man reaches into his pocket and pulls out the
exact change for payment.
The next day, the man and the ostrich come again
and the man says, 'A hamburger, fries, and a coke.'
The ostrich says, 'I'll have the same.'
Again the man reaches into his
pocket and pays with exact change.
This becomes routine until the two enter again.
'The usual?' asks the waitress.
'No, this is Friday night, so I will have a steak,
baked potato and a salad,' says the man.
'Same,' says the ostrich.
Shortly the waitress brings the
order and says, 'That will be $32.62.'
Once again the man pulls the exact change
out of his pocket and places it on the table.
The waitress cannot hold back her curiosity
any longer. 'Excuse me, sir. How do you manage
to always come up with the exact
change in your pocket every time?'
'Well,' says the man, 'several years ago
I was cleaning the attic and found an old lamp.
When I rubbed it, a Genie appeared
and offered me two wishes. My first wish was that if I ever had to pay
for anything, I would just put my hand in my pocket and the right
amount of money would
always be there.'
'That's brilliant!' says the waitress. 'Most
people would ask for a million dollars or something,
but you'll always be as rich as you
want for as long as you live!'
'That's right. Whether it's a gallon of milk
or a Rolls Royce, the exact money is always
there,' says the man.
The waitress asks, 'What's with the ostrich?'
The man sighs, pauses and answers, 'My second wish was for a
tall chick with a big butt and long legs who agrees with everything I
say.'
