Visiting in Vegas

"Visiting in Vegas"

A successful businessman flew to Vegas for the weekend
to gamble. He lost the shirt off his back, and had nothing
left but a quarter and the second half of his round trip
ticket-if he could just get to the airport he could get himself
home. So he went out to the front of the casino where
there was a cab waiting.

He got in and explained his situation to the cabbie.
He promised to send the driver money from home,
he offered him his credit card numbers, his driver's
license number, his address, etc., but to no avail.

The cabbie said, "If you don't have fifteen dollars, get
the hell out of my cab!" So the businessman was
forced to hitchhike to the airport and was barely in
time to catch his flight.

One year later the businessman, having worked long
and hard to regain his financial success, returned to
Vegas and this time he won big. Feeling pretty good
about himself, he went out to the front of the casino to
hail a cab ride back to the airport.

Well, who should he see out there, at the end of a long
line of cabs, but his old buddy who had refused to give
him a ride when he was down on his luck.

The businessman thought for a moment about how he
could make the guy pay for his lack of charity, and he hit
on a plan. The businessman got in the first cab in the
line, "How much for a ride to the airport," he asked?

"Fifteen bucks," came the reply. "And how much for you
to give me a blow job on the way?"

"What?! Get the hell out of my cab."

The businessman got into the back of each cab in the
long line and asked the same questions, with the same
result. When he eventually reached his old 'friend' at
the back of the line, he got in and asked, "How much
for a ride to the airport?"

The cabbie replied "fifteen bucks." The businessman
said, "Okay," and off they went. Then, as they drove
slowly past the long line of cabs the businessman gave
a big smile and thumbs up sign to each driver.
