Cowboy

[Carl Guffey]

<div><div><span style="font-size: 18pt; color: black">A cowboy, who just moved toMontana from Texas, walks into a bar and orders three mugs of Bud. He sits in the back of the room, drinking a sip out of each one in turn. When he finishes them, he comes back to the bar and orders three more.
</span><span style="font-size: 10pt; color: black">
</span><span style="font-size: 18pt; color: black">The bartender approaches and tells the cowboy, "You know, a mug goes flat after I draw it. It would taste better if you bought one at a time."
</span><span style="font-size: 10pt; color: black">
</span><span style="font-size: 18pt; color: black">The cowboy replies, "Well, you see, I have two brothers. One is in Arizona, the other is in Colorado . When we all left our home in Texas, we promised that we'd drink this way to remember the days when we drank together. So I'm drinking one beer for each of my brothers and one for myself."
</span><span style="font-size: 10pt; color: black">
</span><span style="font-size: 18pt; color: black">The bartender admits that this is a nice custom, and leaves it there.
</span><span style="font-size: 10pt; color: black">
</span><span style="font-size: 18pt; color: black">The cowboy becomes a regular in the bar, and always drinks the same way. He orders three mugs and drinks them in turn.
</span><span style="font-size: 10pt; color: black">
</span><span style="font-size: 18pt; color: black">One day, he comes in and only 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."
</span><span style="font-size: 10pt; color: black">
</span><span style="font-size: 18pt; color: black">The cowboy looks quite puzzled for a moment, then a light dawns in his eyes and he laughs.
</span><span style="font-size: 10pt; color: black">
</span><span style="font-size: 18pt; color: black">"Oh, no, everybody's just fine," he explains, "It's just that my wife and I joined the Baptist Church and I had to quit drinking."
</span><span style="font-size: 10pt; color: black">
</span><span style="font-size: 18pt; color: black">"Hasn't affected my brothers, though."</span><span style="font-size: 10pt" /></div></div>
