The Man And The Ostrich

> A man walks into a restaurant with a full-grown ostrich behind him.
>
> The waitress asks them for their orders.
>
> The man says, "A hamburger, fries and a coke," and turns to the
> ostrich, "What's yours?"
>
> "I'll have the same," says the ostrich.
>
> A short time later the waitress returns with the order. "That will
> be $9.40 please," and the man reaches into his pocket and pulls out
> the exact change for payment.
>
> The next day, the man and the ostrich come again and the man says,
> "A hamburger, fries and a coke."
>
> The ostrich says, "I'll have the same." Again the man reaches into
> his pocket and pays with exact change.
>
> This becomes routine until the two enter again. "The usual?" asks
> the waitress.
>
> "No, this is Friday night, so I will have a steak, baked potato and a
> salad," says the man.
>
> "Same," says the ostrich.
>
> Shortly the waitress brings the order and says, "That will be
> $32.62."
>
> Once again the man pulls the exact change out of his pocket and places
> it on the table.
>
> The waitress cannot hold back her curiosity any longer.
> "Excuse me, sir. How do you manage to always come up with the exact
> change in your pocket every time?"
>
> "Well," says the man, "several years ago I was cleaning the
> attic and found an old lamp. When I rubbed it, a Genie
> appeared and offered me two wishes. My first wish was that if I ever
> had to pay for anything, I would just put my hand in my pocket and the
> right amout of money would always be there."
>
> "That's brilliant!" says the waitress. "Most people would ask for a
> million dollars or something, but you'll always be as rich as you
> want for as long as you live!"
>
> "That's right. Whether it's a gallon of milk or a Rolls Royce, the
> exact money is always there," says the man.
>
> The waitress asks, "What's with the ostrich?"
>
> The man sighs, pauses and answers, "My second wish was for a tall
> chick with a big ass and long legs who agrees with everything I
> say."
