>>> The bartender continues to shake his head in dismay. Swoooosh!
>>>
>>> Plip! Plop!! Two arms pop out.
>>> The bar goes wild. The father, crying and wailing, begs his son to

I like this joke, heard 100 years ago and couldn't remember the middle part...but everytime someone would say 'shoulda quit when I was ahead' I thought of it, and tried to remember the middle!

Thanks!! :P

I cannot hear 'alert' without thinking, 'well, that's good the world needs more lerts'
