Subject: Wives should be thankful


A bum, who obviously has seen more than his share of hard times, 
approaches
a  well-dressed gentleman on the street. "Hey Buddy, can you spare two
dollars?"

The well-dressed gentleman responds, "You are not  going to spend it on
liquor are you?"

"No, sir, I don't drink," retorts the bum.

"You are not going to throw it away in some amateur radio equipment, are
you?" asks  the  gentleman. "No way, I'm not a ham," answers the bum.

"You wouldn't waste the money on a hunting license, would you? "asks the
man.  "Never," says the bum, "I don't hunt."

The man asks the bum if he would like to come home with him for a home
cooked  meal. The bum accepts eagerly.

While they are heading for the man's house, the bum's curiosity gets the
better of him. "Isn't your wife going to be angry when she sees a guy
like
me at your table?"

"Probably," says the man, "but it will be worth it. I want her to see
what
happens to a guy who doesn't drink, ham, or hunt."
