The cowboy



A cowboy, who just moved to Wyoming from Texas, walked into a bar and ordered three mugs of Bud draft.

He sat in the back of the room, and drank a sip out of each one in turn.

When he finished them, he came back to the bar and ordered three more.

The bartender approached and told the cowboy, "You know, a mug goes flat after I draw

it. It would taste better if you bought one at a time..."

The cowboy replied, "Well, you see, I have two brothers. One is an Airborne Ranger, the other is a Navy Seal, both serving overseas somewhere.

When we all left our home in Texas, we promised that we'd drink this way to remember the days when we drank together.

So I'm drinking one beer for each of my brothers and one for myself."

The bartender admitted that this was a nice custom, and left it there.

The cowboy became a regular in the bar, and always drank the same way.

He orders three mugs and drinks them in turn.

One day, he came in and only ordered two mugs.

All the regulars took notice and fell silent.

When he came back to the bar for the second round, the bartender said, "I don't want

to intrude on your grief, but I wanted to offer my condolences on your loss."

The cowboy looked puzzled for a moment, then a light dawned in his eyes and he laughed.



"Oh, no, everybody's just fine," he explained, "It's just that my wife and I joined the Baptist Church and I had to quit drinking."

"Hasn't affected my brothers, though."

Cowboy Up!!

^Yes Indeed! Yep the Baptist jokes are still applicable as Jacobite jokes ,I/E why don't they make love standing up? Folks might think they were dancing.etc.I have a real problem with the Southern Baptists because I know what kind of hypocrites they are.Not all(read people) but the powers that be.My intention was not to offend an Baptist member but I do get rather tired of listening to their tiatribe of their concept of "truth".
