Drinking Liquor is a Choice

2008 April 28

I got this in email some time back and I couldn’t resist putting it here.  Thanks for indulging my frivolity! 

 

A Mormon was seated next to an Irishman on a flight from London.  After the plane was airborne, the flight attendants came along and the drink orders were taken.  The Irishman asked for a whiskey, which was promptly brought out, poured and placed before him.  The flight attendant then asked the Mormon if he would like a drink. 

He replied in disgust, “I’d rather be savagely raped by a dozen whores than let liquor touch my lips.” 

“Me too” said the Irishman handing his drink back to the attendant. “I didn’t know we had a choice.”

    Well Erin, being a “guy” and all, what else would you expect? I do think that it casts a very humorous look at how silly “laws” can be and how the simplest thing can open our eyes to how stupid they are.

    It reminds me of the demotivational poster on Tradition which says, “Just because we’ve always done it that way doesn’t mean that it’s not incredibly stupid”.

    I see you went back to your old pic. I like it!!

    Actually I didn’t go back to that pic, it popped up unexpectedly probably because I logged into my OpenID yesterday….I don’t know.

    Anyhow, I get what you’re saying and it does make a good point. I was just being feminist. ;-)

    I didn’t know I had the choice either. But I would still choose the whiskey. I AM scared of my wife. All 95 lbs of her.

    ben ~ Thanks for the visit, but really, you should be working. Now get to it mister! :D

    Erin ~ That has happened with my pics as well. Don’t know what it is…

    Godfather ~ I have looked at your site and will be looking at it some more. It is quite humorous the way you express yourself. Very good. Thanks for the visit.

    Nate ~ I know what it is to be scared of my wife as well but she did give me permission to say in public that I am in charge.
