man & ostrich A man walks into MacDonald's with a full-grown >>> ostrich behind >>> him. The waitress asks for their orders. >>> >>> The man says, "A Big Mac, 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 £6.50 please," she says and the >>> man reaches >>> into his pocket and pulls out the exact amount >>> for payment. >>> >>> The next day, the man and the ostrich come >>> again and the man >>> says, "A Big Mac, fries, and a coke." >>> >>> The ostrich says, "I'll have the same." >>> >>> Again the man reaches into his pocket and pays >>> with exact >>> amount. For a while this becomes routine until >>> the two enter >>> again later in the week. >>> "The >>> usual?" asks the waitress. >>> >>> "No, this time it's a treat, so I will have a >>> steak, baked >>> potato, and salad," says the man. >>> >>> "Yep! Same," says the ostrich. >>> >>> Shortly the waitress brings the order and >>> says, "That will be £21.00." >>> >>> Once again the man pulls the exact amount out >>> of his pocket >>> and places it on the table. >>> >>> The waitress can't hold back her curiosity any >>> longer. >>> "Excuse me, sir. how >>> do you manage to always come up with the exact >>> money from >>> your pocket every >>> time?" >>> "Well," says the man, "several years ago I was >>> clearing 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 >>> wish for a couple >>> of million pounds or something, but you'll >>> always be as rich as you want for nothing as long as >>> you live!" >>> "That's right. Whether it's a pint of milk or >>> a Rolls Royce, >>> the exact money is always there," says the >>> man. >>> >>> The waitress asks, "But, sir, what's with the >>> ostrich?" >>> >>> The man sighs, pauses, and replies, "My second >>> wish was for a >>> tall bird with a big arse and long legs who >>> agrees with >>> everything I say."
