The Bottle Of Merlot

[reelapeelin]

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.
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,
and then decided to send a reply to him via a note. The waiter, who was
lingering nearby for a response, took the note from her and delivered 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 are not
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 are 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.'
