    A very shy guy goes into a bar and sees a beautiful woman sitting at the bar.

    After an hour of gathering up his courage he finally goes over to her and asks, tentatively, “Um, would you mind if I chatted with you for a while?”

    To which she responds by yelling, at the
    top of her lungs, “No, I won’t sleep with you tonight!”

    Everyone in the bar is now staring at them. Naturally, the guy is hopelessly and completely embarrassed and he slinks back to his table.

    After a few minutes, the woman walks over to him and apologizes.

    She smiles at him and says, “I’m sorry if I embarrassed you.

    You see, I’m a graduate student in psychology and I’m studying how people respond to embarrassing situations.”

    To which he responds, at the top of his
    lungs, “What do you mean $200!!!”

    A man walks into a bar one night. He goes up to the bar and asks for a beer. “Certainly, sir, that’ll be 1 cent.”

    “One penny?!” exclaimed the guy.

    The barman replied, “Yes.”

    So, the guy glances over at the menu, and he asks, “Could I have a nice juicy T-bone steak, with fries, peas, and a salad?”

    “Certainly sir,” replies the bartender, “but all that comes to real money.”

    “How much money?” inquires the guy.

    “Four cents,” he replies.

    “Four cents?!” exclaims the guy.

    “Where’s the guy who owns this place?”

    The barman replies, “Upstairs with my wife.”

    The guy says, “What’s he doing with your wife?”

    The bartender replies, “Same as what I’m doing to his business.”

    An airline captain was breaking in a very pretty new blonde stewardess. The route they were flying had a stay-over in another city, so upon their arrival, the captain showed the stewardess the best place for airline personnel to eat, shop and stay overnight.

    The next morning as the pilot was preparing the crew for the day’s route, he noticed the new stewardess was missing. He knew which room she was in at the hotel and called her up wondering
    what happened to her. She answered the phone, sobbing, and said she couldn’t get out of her room.

    “You can’t get out of your room?” the captaind asked, “Why not?”

    The stewardess replied, “There are only three doors in here, “she cried,” one is the bathroom, one is the closet, and one has a sign on it that says “Do Not Disturb”!!
