A Bottle of Merlot
A man asked a waiter to take a bottle of Merlot to an unusually
attractive woman sitting alone at a table in a cozy little restaurant.
So the waiter took the Merlot to the woman and said, 'This is from the
gentleman who is seated over there.' and indicated the sender with a
nod of his head.
She stared at the wine coolly for a few seconds, not looking at the
man, then decided to send a reply to him by a note.
The waiter, who was lingering nearby for a response, took the note
from her and conveyed it to the gentleman.
The note read:
'For me to accept this bottle, you need to have a Mercedes in your
garage, a million dollars in the bank and 7 inches in your pants'.
After reading the note, the man decided to compose one of his own in
return. He folded the note, handed it to the waiter and instructed
him to deliver it to the lady.
It read:
'Just to let you know things aren't always what they appear to be, I
have a Ferrari Maranello, BMW Z8, Mercedes CL600, and a Porsche Turbo
in my several garages; I have beautiful homes in Aspen , Miami , and
a 10,000 acre ranch in Louisiana .. There is over twenty million
dollars in my bank account and portfolio. But, not even for a woman
as beautiful as you are, would I cut off three inches. Just send the
bottle back.'
