I don't do eggs at breakfast, either. But I frequently order the "special" because it is a better bargain. When they ask me how I want my eggs, I usually respond, "Left in the chicken." Believe it or not, some waitresses don't get it...

Florida Retirees

Here's another one

Four retirees are walking down a street in Buffalo, NY. They turn a corner
and see a sign that says: "Old Timers Bar" " ALL DRINKS 10 CENTS!" They look at each other and then go in.

The old bartender says in a voice that carries across the room: "Come on in
and let me pour one for you. What'll it be, folks?" There seems to be a fully
stocked bar, so they all ask for a martini. In short order, the bartender
serves up 4 iced martinis -- and says, "That'll be 10 cents each, please." hey
can't believe their good luck. They pay the 40 cents, finish their martinis,
and order another round. Again, four excellent martinis are produced with
the bartender again saying, "That's 40 more cents, please." They pay the 40
cents, but their curiosity is more than they can stand. They've each had two
martinis and so far they've spent less than a dollar.

Finally. one of the retirees couldn't stand it any longer and asked the
bartender, "How can you afford to serve martinis as good as these for a dime
apiece?"

"Here's my story. I'm a retired cop from New York, and I always wanted to
own a bar. Last year I hit the lottery for $25 million and decided to open this
place. Every drink costs a dime, wine, liquor, beer, all the same."

"Wow. That's quite a story" says one of the men. The four of them sipped at
their martinis and couldn't help but notice three other people (obviously of
retirement age) at the end of the bar who don't have a drink in front of them
and hadn't ordered anything the whole time they were there.

One of the martini drinkers gestures at the three at the end of the bar
without drinks and asks the bartender, "What's with them? " The bartender says, "They're seniors from Florida, and they're waiting for Happy Hour."
