OT - Joke

[nilesh.patel at bnpparibas.com]

A man walks into a restaurant with a full-grown ostrich behind him.
 >> The waitress asks 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
 >> 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 can't hold back her curiosity any longer.
 >> "Excuse me, sir. How do you manage to always come up with the exact
 >> change
 >> out of 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 wish 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, "But, sir, 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."
