This young cowboy walks into a seedy cafe in a small town in West Texas.
He sits at the counter and notices an older cowboy with his arms folded
Staring blankly at a bowl of chili.
After about 15 minutes of just sitting there staring at it, the young
cowboy bravely asks, "if you ain't goin to eat that, mind if I do"? The
older cowboy slowly turns his head toward the young wrangler and in his
best cowboy manner states "Nah, go
ahead".
Eagerly, the young cowboy reaches over and slides the bowl over to his
place and starts spooning it in with delight. He gets nearly down to
the bottom and notices a rotten dead rat in the chili. The sight was
shocking and he immediately pukes up the chili into the bowl.
The old cowboy quietly says, "Yep, that's as far as I got too".
