Today's Joke:
A miner comes into a new town after being in the field for a month. He's carrying a sack of gold. The first thing he does is head to the local saloon.

As he approaches the bar he flips the sack of gold on the bar and says "Hey barkeep give everybody in the place a drink, I'm going upstairs to take a shower. Send up a steak dinner and the prettiest girl in town. Take out a few bucks for your troubles."

The bartender hollers out, "Sorry mac there aren't any women in town. All we got is a Chinaman."

The gold miner without missing a step up the stairs, answers, "Never mind I don't go for that shit."

The next day the miner is off to the fields and doesn't return for 6 weeks. When he returns he has a sack of gold about twice the size as the original one.

Again he heads for the saloon and states, "Hey barkeep give everybody whatever they want to drink & eat for the rest of the night. I'm going up to my room & take a shower. Send up some food and a couple of the best women in town. Take out some gold for your troubles."

The bartender again bellows out, "Sorry partner we still have no women in town. The stagecoach that was bring them in had problems. All we got is that Chinaman."

This time the miner stops about halfway up the stairs, pauses a few seconds & says, "Never mind I don't go for that shit".

The next morning the miner is once again headed to the gold fields. This time He's gone for another month & when he returns he has 2 sacks of gold both larger than the previous one.

First stop has him back at the saloon. He enters throws one of the bags on the bar & says "Hey barkeep drinks are on me till that bag is gone,keep some for yourself. I'm going upstairs to take a shower. Send me up the best steak in the house and two of the prettiest women in town."

Again the bartender says, "Sorry mac the women never did get here. The only thing we got is the Chinaman."

This time the miner spends at least a minute on the stairs and finally says, "OK send the Chinaman up."

The bartender replies, "That will be $600.00 in advance."

The miner turns around in disbelief and screams, "WHAT!? $600.00 for a Chinaman?"

The bartender replies, "No Sir, The $600.00 is for the three guys that are going to hold the Chinaman down. He don't go for that shit either."
