Best Friend

"Best Friend"*

*A man is sitting at the bar in his local tavern, furiously
imbibing shots of whiskey. One of his friends happens
to come into the bar and sees him.

"Lou," says the shocked friend, "what are you doing?
I have known you for over fifteen years, and I have
never seen you take a drink before. What is going on?"

Without even taking his eyes off his newly filled shot
glass, the man replies, "My wife just ran off with my
best friend." He then throws back another shot of
whiskey in one gulp.

"But," says the other man, "I am your best friend!"

The man turns to his friend, looks at him through
bloodshot eyes, smiles, and then slurs, "Not anymore! He is!"
