Rubes by Leigh Rubin for January 27, 2010

The long face.

The stud and the dud.

Uhhhh…?

fredbuhl: LOL

I think the horse has a daredevil career in mind… either that or he’s gonna join Denzel Washington in the sequel to The Book of Eli (0oops… that was a spoiler…)…

one word: glue

Right, FishStix. It’s not like he finshed second in every joust.

Myabe he should ask Lady Shirley if she could take his place - “Shirley, you joust?”

this horse walks into a bar and the bartender asks him…………

Horse probably got the beer on tap. Must be a draft horse.

And he’s probably having that drink put on his tab. He’s obviously a charger.

True story - I swear! Years ago, I was tending bar, and nighthawks started coming in - he would order three whiskey shots - I would line them up and nighthawks would drink them. The next day nighthawks comes back and again orders the three shots.

This goes on day after day, week after week, month after month and I finally say: “You know I can put all three of those into a single glass for you”. nighthawks says “No, I like the three glasses. You see my brothers are away and I’ve not seen them in a long time. This way, this shot here is for jtpozenel, this one is for BC 13, and this one here is for me — its like we are together once again”.

This continues for almost a year until one day nighthawks comes in and says “I would like two shots please”. I asked, softly and in a surprised and concerned tone “what happened, did one of your…” and nighthawks says “Oh, no, no no, my brothers, they are fine, no worries — my doctor said I had to quit drinking”. True story - I would NEVER lie…

what’s up with the horse’s eyes?
