>
> A man is waiting for wife to give birth. The doctor comes in
> and informs the dad that his son was born without torso,
> arms or legs. The son is just a head!
>
> But the father loves his son and raises him as well as he
> can, with love and compassion. After 21 years, the son is
> old enough for his first drink. Dad takes him to the bar
> and tearfully tells the son he is proud of him.
>
> Dad orders up the biggest, strongest drink for his boy.
> With all the bar patrons looking on curiously and the
> bartender shaking his head in disbelief, the boy takes his
> first sip of alcohol. Swoooop! A torso pops out!
>
> The bar is dead silent; then bursts into a whoop of joy. The
> father, shocked, begs his son to drink again. The patrons
> chant "Take another drink!"
>
> The bartender still shakes his head in dismay. Swoooop! Two
> arms pops out. The bar goes wild, but the bartender is
> clearly disapproving.
>
> The father, crying and wailing, begs his son to drink
> again. The patrons chant "Take another drink!" The
> bartender ignores the whole affair.
>
> By now the boy is getting tipsy, and with his new hands he
> reaches down, grabs his drink and guzzles the last of it.
> Swoooop! Two legs pop out. The bar is in chaos. The father
> falls to his knees and tearfully thanks God.
>
> The boy stands up on his new legs and stumbles to the
> left... then to the right... right through the front door,
> into the street, where a truck runs over him and kills him
> instantly. The bar falls silent. The father moans in grief.
> The bartender sighs and says, "That boy should have quit
> while he was a head."
