00The gorilla joke02br
02br
02br
00A gorilla went into a bar and ordered a whisky. The barman thought that it was02br
02br
00unusual to see a gorilla in a bar drinking whisky and, thinking that gorillas02br
02br
00must be stupid, he thought he would try to take advantage of the situation and02br
02br
00overcharge him. He served the gorilla the whisky and said, 'That'll be fifty02br
02br
00dollars please'. The gorilla immediately took out his wallet and paid the02br
02br
00barman, who was very happy. The gorilla drank his whisky quietly and then02br
02br
00ordered another. The barman served him and charged him another fifty02br
02br
00dollars. As the gorilla was drinking his whisky, the barman got curious and02br
02br
00decided to find out why the gorilla was in the bar. So, to strike up a02br
02br
00conversation, he said, 'It's funny, we don't get many gorillas in here'.02br
02br
00'I'm not surprised with the price of your whisky.' the gorilla replied.02br
