How about we do something fun for Tuesdays. Post a funny picture. Post a not so funny picture. Post whatever weirdness you want. That’s it.
Grab the Happy Tuesday linky code on my sidebar and make sure you leave a link to your post here and I’ll visit your Tuesday Fun post.
A cowboy, who just moved to Wyoming from Texas, walks into a bar and orders three mugs of Bud. He sits in the back of the room, drinking a sip out of each one in turn. When he finishes them, he comes back to the bar and orders three more. The bartender approaches and tells the cowboy, “You know, a mug goes flat after I draw it. It would taste better if you bought one at a time.”
The cowboy replies, “Well, you see, I have two brothers. One is an Airborne Ranger, the other is a Navy Seal, both serving overseas somewhere. When we all left our home in Texas, we promised that we’d drink this way to remember the days when we drank together. So I’m drinking one beer for each of my brothers and one for myself.”
The bartender admits that this is a nice custom, and leaves it there. The cowboy becomes a regular in the bar, and always drinks the same way. He orders three mugs and drinks them in turn.
One day, he comes in and only orders two mugs. All the regulars take notice and fall silent. When he comes back to the bar for the second round, the bartender says, “I don’t want to intrude on your grief, but I wanted to offer my condolences on your loss.”
The cowboy looks quite puzzled for a moment, then a light dawns in his eyes and he laughs. “Oh, no, everybody’s just fine,” he explains, “It’s just that my wife and I joined the Baptist Church and I had to quit drinking.” “Hasn’t affected my brothers though.”

Black Bean Clams with Two Noodles – Zucchini noodles and shelf-stable stir-fry noodles combine for a hearty portion in this healthy stir-fry recipe. Chinese fermented black beans (they’re actually soybeans) lend a salty and savory backbone to this quick veggie-filled entree. They’re pungent, so a little goes a long way. Find them at Asian grocery stores, well-stocked supermarkets and online. Image Credit and Recipe: Click on Image
Heeheehee! Now i wonder if he’s going to get three rounds of two instead of two rounds of three. After all, he quit so he should have an extra for each of his brothers instead.
Never thought of mixing zucchini noodles with regular noodles. That would be tasty.
I think he’ll figure that out at some point.
I thought the dish sounded really good. It sure looks good. 🙂
Good one about the cowboy. Thanks for the laugh.
I’m not a fan of clams but I admit that looks really good.
You’re most welcome, Ann. Let’s try that dish together. 🙂
Oh I is droooooling at those clams, yum, yum!
Loves and licky kisses

I’m glad you like clams too, Princess Leah. If I were with you I’d give you some. Loves and lickey kisses back. 🙂
Hahah brilliant joke – definitely made me chuckle!! Will have to try to remember that one 😀
xx
You have to use your brain to continue to uphold your traditions at times. 🙂
Oh. ~groan~ I’d heard a version of that joke before. I wonder if my husband has. ~evil grin~ Nice dish!
I can do the groan jokes very well. I’ve a knack. Yes, nice dish. 🙂
That was a good one Sandee. Sure made me laugh out loud. Sandee, you and Zane have one great day.
One of my blogging buddies sent it to me and thought it was cute. You have a great day too, Marg. 🙂
That’s some clever cowboy!
Yes he is and he knows how to continue to have his beer. 🙂
Weirdness qualifies? I am in! Nice dish but not for my breakfast. Never heard that joke before, and I thought I have heard them all by now!
Anything goes around here as long as you’re having fun. I wouldn’t want this dish for breakfast either, dinner yes. I’m glad at least one of you hasn’t heard this joke before. 🙂
That was funny, it took me a few seconds to get it though 🙂 Thanks for hosting. XO
I’m glad you got the joke, Ellen. You’re most welcome on the hosting. I enjoy it so. 🙂
Honey I hope you are feeling a little better. And that you are resting as much as you can, you need your rest. Have a healing and blessed day my dear sweet friend.
A bushel of LOVE & ((HUGS)) ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥
I’m feeling better today. I actually ate some solid food for the first time in two days. I think I’m on the mend finally. Love you back, Jody. 🙂
Smart cowboy 😺
I like me a smart cowboy and he’s a smart one. 🙂
Great excuse to keep drinking–I was not expecting that ending. And…now we are hungry
I thought so too and I’d love to share this dish with you along with a nice glass of wine. 🙂
I want that cowboys ideas LOL
The clams with noodles look delicious I can almost smell it LOL
Have a clamtastic HPS 🙂
Yep he’s a smart one.
I love clams. I love clams a lot. You have a clamtastic HT too, Steve. 🙂
Something tells me that he isn’t going to try to convert his brothers.
I think you’re right about that, Kismet. 🙂
eyes pop at the huge food photo. Stomach grumbles. That looks awesome!
Laughing at the joke. Well at least one of him quit drinking.
I thought you’d like that dish. I try my best. I too loved the joke. Ironic humor if you ask me. 🙂
hilarious joke and the clams look delish!
I’ll come up and we’ll whip up this dish together. We would have a great time and I could give you and Russell a hug and love on Miss Lucy. 🙂
Clever joke, and the food looks irresistible!
Yes the food looks irresistible indeed. I’m hungry and that’s a good sign. 🙂
Too funny 🙂 Those clams look delishious! We’re having Swiss Steak for supper 🙂
Sandee, have a great day and I look forward to visiting tomorrow.
Swiss steak with mashed potatoes and gravy? I’ll be right over. You have a great day too and I’ll see you tomorrow. 🙂
Fun post and yummy looking foodie post ~ Xox from Ms Z
Happy Day to you,

Yes on both counts, Carol. Scritches and lovies to Ms. Zoe. Happy day to you both. 🙂
I had heard that joke before, but I had forgotten the punch line. Happens to me all the time. My husband’s love of that dish came to a screeching halt when he read “soybean clams.” As a New Hampshire yankee, he’d rather go hungry than eat fake clams. Me, on the other hand, think that’s a good feature so I’ll have his portion 😉
I agree with your hubby, but I would eat this. Far better for you I would thing. We could share it together. 🙂
Well for goodness sake, hahahahhaa That one surprised me and made me laugh. 🙂
I thought it was ever so clever. It’s how we think when we want to get around something. 🙂
haha That’s a funny little story! I didn’t see the ending coming at all.
Happy to have you as a blogging friend, Sandee! 🙂 <3
I’m happy to have you as a blogging friend too. I’m met so many wonderful people since I moved to WordPress. 🙂
Those clams look yummy.
One of my favorite dishes. 🙂
Thanks for posting for me yesterday. I did not get a chance to do one today…hopefully for Wordless Wednesday!
Love Barb
I know you’re busy with work. Too busy and Marv thinks so too. 🙂
Now, that’s funny! Seems you can always find a way around everything one way or another! LOL! 😀
Yes there is always a way around something if you think hard enough. Clever cowboy. 🙂
Thanks, Sandee for helping me to link up with Happy Tuesday. The clams with mixed noodles looks delicious!
You’re most welcome, Nancy. Your post was most fun. 🙂
Good one! Thanks for the chuckles.
You’re most welcome, Eugenia. 🙂
👍
Haha! I like that joke. I am going to tell my husband that one.
Have a great day 🙂
I hope he likes it. Good clean fun. You have a great day too, Jen. 🙂
I would have thought it was linguini and clams but this sounds much more interesting.
I thought it sounded very good. Let’s share some. Wine too. 🙂
