A successful
businessman flew to Vegas for the weekend to gamble. He lost the shirt
off his back, and had
nothing left
but a quarter and the second half of his round-trip ticket -- If he could
just get to the airport he
could get
himself home. So he went out to the front of the casino where there was
a cab waiting. He got in and
explained
his situation to the cabbie. He promised to send the driver money from
home, he offered him his credit
card numbers,
his drivers license number, his address, etc. but to no avail. The cabbie
said (adopt appropriate
dialect),
"If you don't have fifteen dollars, get the hell out of my cab!" So the
businessman was forced to
hitch-hike
to the airport and was barely in time to catch his flight.
One year later
the businessman, having worked long and hard to regain his financial success,
returned to Vegas
and this time
he won big. Feeling pretty good about himself, he went out to the front
of the casino to get a cab
ride back
to the airport. Well who should he see out there, at the end of a long
line of cabs, but his old buddy
who had refused
to give him a ride when he was down on his luck. The businessman thought
for a moment about
how he could
make the guy pay for his lack of charity, and he hit on a plan.
The businessman
got in the first cab in the line, "How much for a ride to the airport,"
he asked? "Fifteen bucks,"
came the reply.
"And how much for you to give me a blow-job on the way?" "What?!!! Get
the hell out of my cab."
The businessman
got into the back of each cab in the long line and asked the same questions,
with the same
result. When
he got to his old friend at the back of the line, he got in and asked "How
much for a ride to the
airport?"
The cabbie replied "fifteen bucks."
The businessman
said "ok" and off they went. Then, as they drove slowly past the long line
of cabs the
businessman
gave a big smile and thumbs up sign to each driver.
