Subject: Baptist Cowgirl

A cowgirl, who is visiting Texas from Arkansas, walks into a bar and
orders three mugs of Bud. She sits in the back of the room, drinking a
sip out of each one in turn. When she finishes them, she comes back to the
bar and orders three more.

The bartender approaches and tells the cowgirl, "You know, a mug goes
flat after I draw it. It would taste better if you bought one at a time."

The cowgirl replies, "Well, you see, I have two sisters. One is in
Australia, the other is in Dublin. When we all left our home in
Arkansas, we promised that we'd drink this way to remember the days when
we drank together. So I'm drinking one beer for each of my sisters and
one for myself."

The ba! rtender admits that this is a nice custom, and leaves it
there. The cowgirl becomes a regular in the bar, and always drinks the
same way. She orders three m ugs and drinks them in turn.

One day, she comes in and only orders two mugs. All the regulars take
notice and fall silent. When she comes back to the bar for the second
round, the bartender says, "I don't want to intrude on your grief, but I
wanted to offer my condolences on your loss."

The cowgirl looks quite puzzled for a moment, then a light dawns in her
eyes and she laughs. "Oh, no, everybody's just fine," she explains, "It's just
that my husband and I joined the Baptist Church and I had to quit drinking."
"Hasn't affected my sisters though."

Being a baptist, I am greatly offended... Just kidding, I thought it was hysterical.

You should have made her a blonde baptist cowgirl though. Then she could've been me! LOL. Still don't understand why us baptists aren't supposed to drink. I think a drink a day could keep the anger away. I mean somedays I really would like a shot of something just to make it through LOL!

Hey, you need a beer toasting emoticon here.
