The man and the ostrich

[Goodwatch]

A man walks up to the bar with an ostrich, and tells the bartender, "I'll have a beer." He turns to the ostrich. "What about you?"

"I'll have a beer too," says the ostrich. The bartender pours the beer and says "That will be $4.75 please," and the man reaches into his pocket and pulls out exact change for payment.

The next day, the man and ostrich come again, and the man says "I'll have a beer," and the ostrich says, "I'll have the same." Once again the man reaches into his pocket and pays with exact change.

The same thing happens day after day. One evening they arrive late. "The usual?" asks the bartender. "Well, since it's close to last call, I'll have a tall bourbon and soda" says the man. "Same for me," says the ostrich.

"That will be $10.50," says the bartender. Once again the man pulls exact change out of his pocket and places it on the bar.

The bartender can't hold back his curiosity any longer. "Excuse me sir. How do you manage to always come up with the exact change out of 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 whenever I have to pay for anything, I just put my hand in my pocket, and the right amount of money will always be there."

"That's brilliant!" says the bartender. "Most people would wish for a million bucks or something, but you'll be rich for as long as you live!"

"Yep!" smiled the man. Whether it's a glass of beer or a new Cadillac, the exact money is always there," says the man.

"One other thing, sir," asks the bartender. "What's with the ostrich?"

"Well," the man sighed. "My second wish was for a tall chick with a big ass and long legs who agrees with everything I say."
