An Australian is drinking in a New York bar when he gets a call on his cell phone. He hangs up, grinning from ear to ear, and orders a round of drinks for everybody in the bar because, he announces, his wife had just given birth to a 25lb baby boy.

Nobody can believe that any new baby can weigh in at 25 pounds, but the Aussie just shrugs, That's about average down under, folks . . . Like I said, my boy's a typical Australian baby boy."

Congratulations showered him from all around. One woman actually fainted due to sympathy pains.

Two weeks later the Australian returns to the bar.

The bartender says, "Say, you're the father of that typical Australian baby that weighed 25 pounds at birth, aren't you? Everybody's been makin' bets about how big he'd be in two weeks. We were gonna call you . . . so how much does he weigh now?"

The proud father answers, "Seventeen pounds."

The bartender is puzzled, and concerned. "What happened? He already weighed 25 pounds the day he was born."

The Australian father takes a slow swig from his Fosters beer, wipes his lips on his shirt sleeve, leans into the bartender and proudly says,

"Had him circumcised".

That's really a Texan joke !!

The punchline to the Texas version is.

"Changed his diapers".

Yep thats about right. Had my boy circumcised and I'm using the fore skin for a fanbelt
