Every night, Frank would go down to the liquor store, get a six-pack,
bring it home, and drink it while he watched TV. One night, as he
finished his last beer, the doorbell rang. He stumbled to the door and
found a six-foot cockroach standing there. The bug grabbed him by the
collar and threw him across the room, then left. The next night, after
he finished his 4th beer, the doorbell rang. He walked slowly to the
door and found the same six-foot cockroach standing there. The big bug
punched him in the stomach, then left. The next night, after he
finished his 1st beer, the doorbell rang again. The same six-foot
cockroach standing there. This time he was knee'd in the groin and hit
behind the ear as he doubled over in pain. Then he left. The fourth
night Frank didn't drink at all. The doorbell rang. The six-foot
cockroach standing there. The bug beat the snot out of Frank and left
him in a heap on the living room floor. The following day, Frank went
to see his doctor.
He explained the events of the preceding four nights. "What can I do?" he
pleaded. "Not much" answered the doctor. "There's just a nasty bug going
around."
