A Joke

A Skunk, a Deer and a Giraffe  enter a tavern

and sidle up to the bar. The Giraffe says “bartender,

a round of drinks please”. The bartender sets them up

and the three immediately down their drinks.

The Giraffe says “bartender , another round please”.

The bartender sets them up again and the three

immediately quaff them.

Once again the Giraffe requests another round

but since no money has been displayed

the bartender says “by the way guys, who’s

going to pay for the drinks?”

The Skunk says, “damn, I haven’t a scent”.

The Deer says, “well, I had a buck on me

this past spring and I expect a little doe in the fall”.

The Giraffe says, “that’s all-right fellas,

the highballs are on me”.   Ha,ha!

A joke I first heard too long ago, it is one of the few

I can remember. I find that children in particular

are delighted when I tell it.

At the moment I’m trying to concoct a joke about

a Muslim, a Christian and a Jew, but it is far from

easy, for as you know I have no desire to offend anyone.
