Old Timers' Bar

> Four old retired guys are walking down a street in The Villages, Florida.
> They turned a corner and see a sign that says, 'Old Timers Bar - all drinks
> 10 cents'. They look at each other, and then go in, thinking this is too
> good to be
> true.
>
> The old bartender says in a voice that carries across the room, 'Come on in
> and let me pour one for you!
>
> What'll it be, Gentlemen?'
> There seemed to be a fully-stocked bar, so each of the men ask for a
> martini.
> In short order, the bartender serves up four iced martinis....shaken, not
> stirred, and says, 'That'll be 10 cents each, please.'
>
> The four men stare at the bartender for a moment.
> Then look at each other...they can't believe their good luck.
> They pay the 40 cents, finish their martinis, and order another round.
> Again, four excellent martinis are produced with the bartender again saying,
> 'That's 40 cents, please.' They pay the 40 cents, but their curiosity is
> more than they can stand.
>
> They have each had two martinis and so far they've spent less than a dollar.
> Finally one of the men says, 'How can you afford to serve martinis as good
> as these for a dime a piece?'
> 'I'm a retired tailor from Boston ,' the bartender said, 'and I always
> wanted to own a bar. Last year I hit the Lottery for $25 million and
> decided to open this place.
> Every drink costs a dime - wine, liquor, beer, it's all the same.'
> Wow!!!!
> That's quite a story,' says one of the men.
> The four of them sipped at their martinis and couldn't help but notice seven
> other people at the end of the bar who didn't have drinks in front of them,
> and hadn't ordered anything the whole time they were there.
>
> One man gestured at the seven at the end of the bar without drinks and asks
> the bartender, 'What's with them?'
> The bartender says, 'Oh, they're all old retired farts from Buffalo waiting
> for happy hour when drinks are half price.'
