Laugh a little

A Story for the Chronologically Challenged

It’s Fay’s 80th birthday and she decides to celebrate it on her own at the Savoy Hotel because they make good drinks there.  As soon as she arrives, Fay goes into the bar and orders a whiskey with 2 drops of water.

As the barman gives her the drink, Fay tells him, "I'm 80 years old today, you know."

The barman says, "As it's your birthday, this drink is on me."


"Thank you," says Fay, and she quickly finishes her drink.


Then a woman next to her says, "I’d like to buy you a drink, too."


"Why thanks," says Fay, "barman, a whiskey with 2 drops of water, please."


"Coming right up," says the barman. Fay again knocks back her drink.


Then a man next to her says, "Mazeltov, madam, may I too buy you a drink?"


"Why yes," says Fay, "barman, a whiskey with 2 drops of water please."


As he hands her the drink, the barman says, "Excuse me for asking but why the whiskey with only 2 drops of water? I'm dying to know."


Fay replies, "It’s simple - when you're my age, you know how to hold your liquor, but take it from me, water is something altogether different!"
