BEER, FISHING, SEX & GOLF

A man was walking down the street when he was accosted

by a particularly dirty and shabby-looking homeless

man who asked him for a couple dollars for dinner.

The man took out his wallet, extracted ten dollars

and asked, "If I give you this money, will you buy

some beer with it instead of dinner?"

"No, I had to stop drinking years ago," the

homeless man replied.

"Will you use it to go fishing instead of

buying food?" the man asked.

"No, I don't waste time fishing," the homeless

man said. "I need to spend all my time

trying to stay alive."

"Will you spend this on greens fees at a

golf course instead of food?" the man asked.

"Are you NUTS!" replied the homeless man.

"I haven't played golf in 20 years!"

"Will you spend the money on a woman in the

red light district instead of food?" the man asked.

"What disease would I get for ten lousy bucks?"

exclaimed the homeless man.

"Well," said the man, "I'm not going to give

you the money. Instead, I'm going to take

you home for a terrific dinner cooked by my wife."

The homeless man was astounded. "Won't your

wife be furious with you for doing that?

I know I'm dirty, and I probably smell pretty disgusting."

The man replied, "That's okay. It's important for

her to see what a man looks like after he has given

up beer, fishing, golf, and sex.
