A man is waiting for his wife
to give birth ...
The doctor comes in and informs
the dad that his son was born without torso, arms or legs. The son
is just a head!
But the dad loves his son and
raises him as well as he can, with love and compassion. After 21
years, the son is now old enough for his first drink. Dad takes
him to the bar, tearfully tells the son he is proud of him and
orders up the biggest, strongest drink for his boy. With all the
bar patrons looking on curiously and the bartender shaking his
head in disbelief, the boy takes his first sip of alcohol.
Swoooop! A torso pops out!
The bar is dead silent; then
bursts into a whoop of joy. The father, shocked, begs his son to
drink again.
The patrons chant "Take another
drink"!
The bartender still shakes his
head in dismay. Swoooop! Two arms pops out.
The bar goes wild. The father,
crying and wailing, begs his son to drink again.
The patrons chant "Take another
drink"!
The bartender ignores the whole
affair.
By now the boy is getting tipsy,
and with his new hands he reaches down, grabs his drink and
guzzles the last of it.
Swoooop! Two legs pop out.
The bar is in chaos. The father
falls to his knees and tearfully thanks God.
The boy stands up on his new legs
and stumbles to the left....then to the right.... right through
the front door, into the street, where a truck runs over him and
kills him instantly. The bar falls silent. The father moans in
grief. The bartender sighs and says ...
... "He should have quit while he
was a head!"
