One of the most important things that we can do in life is to have a plan available. Of course, that plan may be different from one situation to another but if we don’t plan in advance, we are likely planning to fail. Sometimes, having a plan in place can even help us to get out of a difficult situation and that is seen in a very hilarious way in the following joke. The man really didn’t know what to do because he knew he was going to get in trouble when he got home. He had someone help him out, but I’m not sure how well it worked.
Dave walked into his favorite bar, looking blue. The bartender started setting him up his usual, and our man, Dave, says, “No, no – just a glass of milk.”
Taken aback, the bartender asks what the hell has gotten into him?
Dave responds, “Well, my wife told me that if she catches me coming home late and drunk after I’ve thrown up on myself one more time, she’ll divorce me! And this time she means it. I’m blue…”
“Hey, no problem!” the bartender says as he starts setting Dave up again. “Do you have any big bills on you?”
“Well, sure,” says Dave. “I just got paid.”
“Okay,” says the bartender, “drink all you want and rolf like you usually do, and when you get home and she complains, show her a $50 bill and tell her someone threw up on YOU, then offered to pay for the shirt!”
What a great idea, Dave thinks, and starts knocking them back.
Later that night, when Dave gets home late, drunk, and having thrown up on himself, his wife meets him at the door, screaming: “Damn it, Dave – I’ve told you! That’s it!”
“Wait! Wait! It’s not me! Some drunk threw up on ME and gave me this $50 bill to pay for my shirt!”
She yanks the money out of his hand. “Dave, this is a $100 bill.”
“Well,” Dave replies, “that same drunk crapped my pants as well.”
