THE OSTRICH

A man walks into a restaurant with a full-grown
ostrich behind him.

The waitress asks him for his order.

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 a 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 cannot hold back her curiosity any longer. "Excuse
me sir. How do you manage to always come up with the exact change in
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 ask
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, "What's with the ostrich?"

The man sighs, pauses and answers,
"My second wish was for a tall chick with a big ass and long legs who agrees with everything I say.

Sorry to disappoint.

I just got this in email, never heard it, and thought it was funny. So of course my first thought was to share it with ATOT since you are all such wonderful, gracious people.
