You should have told him not to poke his eyes with his food!! :-)


LOL!! That just reminded me of an eating joke........

A guy walks in to a bar with his pet monkey. He orders a drink and while
he's drinking the monkey jumps all around the place. The monkey grabs
some olives off the bar and eats them. Then he grabs some sliced limes
and eats them. Then he jumps on to the pool table, grabs one of the
billiard balls, sticks it in his mouth, and to everyone's amazement
somehow swallows it whole. The bartender screams at the guy, "Did you
see what your monkey did?"

The guy says, "No, what?"

"He just ate the cue ball off my pool table - whole!"

"Yeah, that doesn't surprise me," replies the guy. "He eats everything
in sight. Sorry. I'll pay for everything."

The man finishes his drink, pays his bill, pays for the stuff the monkey
ate and leaves.

Two weeks later, he's in the bar again, and his pet monkey is with him.
He orders a drink and the monkey starts running around the bar again.
While the man is finishing his drink, the monkey finds a maraschino
cherry on the bar. He grabs it, sticks it in his butt, pulls it out and
eats it. The bartender is disgusted. "Did you see what your monkey did
now?" he asks.

"No, what?" replied the guy. "Well, he stuck a maraschino cherry in his
butt, pulled it out and ate it!" said the bartender.

"Yeah, that doesn't surprise me," replied the guy. He still eats
everything in sight but ever since he swallowed that cue ball, he
measures everything first."
