A woman on a cruise ship orders a Scotch with two drops of water at the bar.
As he hands her the drink, she informs the bartender, “I’m taking this trip to honor my 80th birthday today”.
I’ll get you a drink in honor of your birthday. Currently, this one is free”.
The female seated to her right comments as she finishes her beverage.
“Get you a drink, too, please”.
Says the elderly woman.
“I appreciate it, thank you.
Please have a Scotch with two drops of water”.
Coming up, the waiter at the bar says”.
The man speaks to her to her left as she takes that drink.
“I also want to purchase one for you”.
It is said by the elderly woman.
“Thank you, I appreciate it. Another Scotch with two drops of water, please.
The bartender announces, “Coming right up”.
He says, handing her the drink.
Please explain to me, ma’am, why there are only two water dabs in the Scotch.
The elderly woman replies, “When you’re my age, son, you’ve learned to control your alcohol”.
Holding your water, however, is an entirely different story”.
