I went into a small diner today to escape the cold. I waited at the take-out counter for about five minutes before the waitress, who is yakking to her friends, comes over to me. I was not happy.

"Yeah?", she snarled.

"Coffee", says I.

"How would you like it", she grumbled.

"In a cup!", says I.

She gives me a dirty look.

"Regular coffee?", she asks.

"No, unleaded!", says I.

She threw me out.

Sounds like a truck stop we often use . difference being we usually throw the waitress out.
The owner loves us coming in says were the only ones who stand up to her, it's his wife.. .:D

Everyone knows, for the best meals, stop where the truckers stop.

I've been in a lot of tough places. You know the old story -- you're eating eggs and you find a ****roach in your plate. You complain to the cook and he says, "Now I have to charge you extra for meat!"

Ahh New York indeed!... lotta love in the big apple ,eh?...

Up here in Canada we'd say sorry... Thats a running joke up here. Sorry as in "sorry for interrupting your visit with your friends, but can I have a cup of coffee?"

CELIBACY can be a choice in
life, or it can be a
condition imposed by certain environmental encounters,
to wit:

While attending a marriage encounter weekend, Walter
and his wife Ann listened to the instructor declare,
"It is essential that husbands and wives
know the things that are important to each other."

He addressed the men, "Can you name and describe your
wife's favorite flower?"

Walter leaned over, touched Ann's arm gently and
whispered, "Pillsbury All-purpose, isn't it?"

And thus began Walter's life of celibacy.

Nice one Linda.

I'm surprised that Walter did not need some lillies for his headstone.
