A MIDDLE-AGED WOMAN, QUITE SCUZZY LOOKING, CAME INTO A
BAR WITH HER HANDS CUPPED TOGETHER IN FRONT OF HER. SHE
LOUDLY ANNOUNCED TO ALL PRESENT THAT IF ANYONE COULD
GUESS WHAT SHE WAS HOLDING IN HER HANDS, THEY COULD HAVE
HER BODY FOR THE NIGHT. A DRUNK IN THE BACK YELLS OUT,
"AN ELEPHANT!" SHE IMMEDIATELY ANSWERED, "THAT'S
CLOSE ENOUGH."
