"The Baptist Cowboy"
A cowboy, who just moved to Wyoming from Texas, walks into a bar and orders three mugs of Bud. He sits in the back of the room, drinks a sip out of each one in turn. When he finishes them, he comes back to the bar and orders three more.
The bartender approaches and tells the cowboy, "you know, a mug goes flat after I draw it. It would taste better if you bought one at a time...."
The cowboy replies, "Well you see, I have two brothers, one is an Airborne Ranger and the other is a Navy Seal, both serving overseas somewhere. When we all left home in Texas, we promised that we'd drink this way to remember the days when we drank together. So, I'm drinking one beer for each of my brothers and one for myself."
The bartender admits this is a nice custom and leaves it there.
The cowboy becomes a regular in the bar and always drinks the same way.
One day, he comes in and only orders two mugs. All the regulars take notice and become silent.
When he comes back to the bar for the second round, the bartender says, "I don't want to intrude on your grief, but I wanted to offer my condolences on your grief."
The cowboy looks quite puzzled for a moment, then a light dawns in his eyes and he laughs. "Oh no, everybody's just fine," he explains, "It's just that my wife and I joined the Baptist church and I had to quit drinking."
"Hasn't affected my brothers though...." :wink:

Y'all have a nice day now....just couldn't help myself. My humor must be possessed. :roll: :wink:

Justify - 'just if I' never gave it another thought.
Rationalize - should have looked through the 'rational eyes' of someone rational. :lol:

More "southern" vocabulary for me to learn? Thank you, suh. I have lived here long enough to know not to say "bless your heart":roll: :lol: "Those" words would never leave my lips in reference to you, seeing as how I've grown fond of you. :wink: Realize...mine are twinkling at the moment. :thumbup:

I would prefer your realize over all the f**e eyes any day of the week. :D Twinkling eyes are especially appealing. Now, if I could figure out how to get them appealing some potato's - we could eat. :lol:
