3 Patrons In A Bar

3 patrons in a bar

The bartender was washing his glasses, when an elderly

Irishman came in. With great difficulty, the Irishman hoisted

his bad leg over the barstool, pulled himself up painfully,

and asked for a sip of Irish whiskey. The Irishman looked

down the bar and said, "Is that Jesus down there?" The

bartender nodded, so the Irishman told him to give

Jesus an Irish whiskey, too.

The next patron to come in was an ailing Italian with a

hunched back, who moved very slowly. He shuffled up to the

barstool and asked for a glass of Chianti. He also looked

down the bar and asked if that was Jesus sitting at the end

of the bar. The bartender nodded, so the Italian said to give

Him a glass of Chianti, too.

The third patron to enter the bar was a redneck, who

swaggered into the bar and hollered, "Barkeeper, set me up a

cold one! Hey, is that God's Boy down there?" The barkeeper

nodded, so the redneck told him to give Jesus a cold one,

too.

As Jesus got up to leave, he walked over to the Irishman and

touched him and said, "For your kindness, you are healed!"

The Irishman felt the strength come back to his leg, so he

got up and danced a jig out the door. Jesus touched the

Italian and said, "For your kindness, you are healed!" The

Italian felt his back straighten, so he raised his hands

above his head and did a flip out the door.

Jesus walked toward the redneck, but the redneck jumped back

and exclaimed, "Don't touch me! I'm drawin' disability!"
