Aussie trucker and the emu
>
>An Aussie truckie walks into an outback cafe with a full-grown emu
>behind him.
>
>The waitress asks them for their orders.
>
>The truckie says, 'A hamburger, chips and a coke,' and turns to the
>emu, 'What's yours?'
>
>
> 'Sounds great, I'll have the same,' says the emu.
>
> A short time later the waitress returns with the order 'That will be
>$9.40 please,' and
> he reaches into his pocket and pulls out the exact change and pays.
>
>
> The next day, the man and the emu come again and he says, 'A
>hamburger, chips and a coke.'
> The emu says, ' Sounds great, I'll have the same.'
>
> Again the truckie reaches into his pocket and pays with exact change.
>
> This becomes routine until the two enter again. 'The usual?' asks the
>waitress.
> 'No, it's Friday night, so I'll have a steak, baked potato and a
>salad,' says the man..
> 'Same for me,' says the emu.
>
> Shortly the waitress brings the order and says, 'That will be
>$32.62.'
> Once again the man pulls the exact change out of his pocket and puts
>it on the table..
>
>
> The waitress cannot hold back her curiosity any longer.
> 'Excuse me mate, how do you manage to always pull the exact change
>from your pocket every time?'
>
>'Well, love' says the truckie, 'a few years ago, I was cleaning out the
>back shed, and found an old lamp.
>When I cleaned it, a Genie appeared and offered me two wishes.
>
>My first wish was that if I ever had to pay for anything, I would just
>put my hand in my pocket and the right amount of money would always be
>there.'
>
>'That's brilliant!' says the waitress.
>'Most people would ask for a million dollars or something, but you'll
>always be as rich as you want, for
>as long as you live!'
>
>
> 'That's right..
> Whether it's a gallon of milk or a Rolls Royce, the exact money is
>always there.' says the man.
>
>
> Still curious the 'What's with the bloody emu?
>
>
>The truckie pauses, sighs, 'My second wish was for a tall bird with a
>big arse and long
>legs, who agrees with everything I say!!'.
