A man was walking in the city.. when he was accosted by a particularly dirty and shabby-looking bum who asked him for a couple of dollars for dinner..
The man took out his wallet.. extracted two dollars and asked.. "If I gave you this money.. will you take it and buy whiskey?"
"No.. I stopped drinking years ago.." the bum said..
"Will you use it to gamble?"
"I don't gamble.. I need everything I can get just to stay alive.."
"Will you spend the money on greens fees at a golf course?"
"Are you NUTS!! I haven't played golf in 20 years!!"
The man said.. "Well.. I'm not going to give you two dollars.. Instead.. I'm going to take you to my home for a terrific dinner cooked by my wife.."
The bum was astounded.. "Won't your wife be furious with you for doing that? I know I'm dirty.. and I probably smell pretty bad.."
The man replied.. "That's OK.. I just want her to see what a man looks like who's given up drinking.. gambling.. and golf.."
