TEXAS BABY
A Texan is drinking in a New York bar when he gets a call on
his cell phone. He hangs up, grinning from ear to ear, and
orders a round of drinks for everybody in the bar
announcing his wife has produced a typical Texas baby
--boy weighing 25 pounds. Nobody can believe that any new
baby can weigh in at 25 pounds, but the Texan just shrugs,
"That's about average down home, folks .. like I said, my
boy's a typical Texas baby boy."
Congratulations showered him from all around, and many
exclamations of "WOW!" We heard one woman actually
fainted due to sympathy pains.
Two weeks later he returns to the bar. The bartender says,
"Say you're the father of that typical Texas baby that
weighed 25 pounds at birth. Everybody's been making bets
about how big he'd be in two weeks. So how much does he
weigh now?
The proud father answers, "Seventeen pounds."
The bartender is puzzled, concerned, and a little suspicious.
"What happened? He already weighed 25 pounds the day
he was born!"
The Texas father takes a slow swig from his long-neck Lone
Star beer, wipes his lips on his shirt sleeve, leans into the
bartender and proudly says,
"Had'm circumcised".
