THE MAN AND THE DOVE

   A man entered the monkey’s bar together with a dove. The man asked the monkey for “water the birds don’t drink”. The monkey looked at the drunken face of the dove and asked the man:  

   -Is it only for you, my friend?

   And the man answered:

   -It is only for the dove. I drink only mineral water.
