LOOKS LIKE…….. A man (LuisPidade) was waiting for a taxi. A Beggar in dirty and torn clothes, long beard with scanty mixed black/grey hair, came along and asked LuisPidade for some money. He ignored him. But being a professional, the Beggar kept on pestering him. LuisPidade became irritated when he realized that the Beggar would not leave him alone unless he parts with some money:-
LuisPidade: Tell me the truth, if I give you 10 rupees, what you will do with it? Beggar: I will have cup of tea. LuisPidade: (Took a pack of cigarettes from his pocket) I can offer you a cigarette instead of tea. Beggar: I don't smoke, as it is injurious to health. LuisPidade: (Smiled and took a pint of whisky from his briefcase) Take this pint and enjoy the stuff. It is really good. Beggar: (Refused) Alcohol muddles the brain and damages the liver. LuisPidade: (Smiled again) I am going to the race course. Come with me and I will arrange the tickets and we will place bets. If we win, you take the whole amount. Beggar: Sorry sir, I can't come with you, as betting on horses is a bad habit. LuisPidade: You please come with me to my house. Beggar: But why you want me to go to your house with you. LuisPidade: My wife always criticizes me, because I have bad habits of smoking, drinking and betting. So I want her to see, how a man with no bad habits looks like. Cajetan de Sanvordem Kuwait.
