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 of dollars for dinner.
The man took out his wallet, extracted two dollars and
asked, "If I give you this money, will you buy some beer with it instead?"
"No, I had to stop drinking years ago," the homeless
man replied.
"Will you use it to gamble instead of buying food?"
the man asked.
"No, I don't gamble," the homeless man said. "I need
everything I can get just to stay alive."
"Will you spend the money 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!"
"Well," said the man, "I'm not going to give you the
two dollars, 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 bad."
The man replied, "Hey, man, that's okay. I just want
her to see what a man looks like who's given up beer, gambling, and golf.
