A drunk was
walking home one night, desperate, despondent, at his darkest
moment.
God appears before him holding
something in His hand.
"What's that?"
the drunk inquires, squinting to see straight.
"This? is sobriety."
"Sobriety?!!! Is it for
me?"
"Perhaps" said God,
"How much do you have?"
The drunk checked all of
his pockets, crumpled wads of bills, change, etc. "I only have
about 20 dollars."
God looked at him and
looked at the sobriety in his hand and smiled and said, "You're
in luck, tonight sobriety costs 20 dollars."
"But wait!" the
drunk says, "If I give you this, I won't have any gas for
my car."
"You have a car? Well
then the price has just gone up to 20 dollars and a car."
"But if you take my car,
how will I get to work?"
