A well-dressed gentleman entered an upscale restaurant in
the East End of Manhattan, and took a seat at the bar.

The bartender came over and asked “What can I get you to
drink, sir”?

The gentleman responded, “Nothing, thank you. I tried
alcohol once, didn’t like it, and never tried it again”.

The bartender was a bit perplexed, but being a friendly,
outgoing sort, he pulled out a pack of cigarettes and
offered the gentleman a cigarette.

The gentleman refused, saying, “I tried smoking once, didn’t
like it, and never did it again. The point is, I wouldn’t be
in here at all, except that I’m waiting for my son”.

The bartender retorted, “Your only child, I presume”!
