Default So, I walked into a bar...

We both stared up at the bar TV as the 11 pm news came on. The news crew
was covering a story of a man on a ledge of a large building. He was
preparing to jump.

JustaFart looked at me and said, "Do you think he'll jump?"

I said, "You know what, I bet he will." JustaFart replied, "Well, I bet
he won't." He placed $20 on the bar and said, "You're on!"

Just as JustAFart placed his money on the bar, the guy did a swan dive
off of the building, falling to his death. JustaFart was very upset and
handed his $20 to me, saying, "Fair's fair...here's your money."

I replied, "I can't take your money, I saw this news story earlier on
the 5 o'clock news and knew he would jump."

JustaFart replies, "I did, too, but I didn't think he'd do it again."

I took the money.
