A Texan is drinking in a New York bar when he gets
a call on his cell phone. He hangs up,
grinning from ear to ear, and orders a round of
drinks for everybody in the bar - announcing his
wife has produced a typical Texas baby boy
weighing 25 pounds. Nobody can believe
that any new baby can weigh in at 25 pounds but
the Texan just shrugs and says, "That's about
average down home folks ... like I said,
my boy's a typical Texas baby
boy."

Congratulations showered him from all around, and many
exclamations of "WOW!" We heard one woman
actually fainted due to sympathy pains.


Two weeks later, he returns to the bar. The
bartender says, "Say you're the father of that
typical Texas baby that weighed 25 pounds at
birth. Everybody's been making bets about
how big he'd be in two weeks. So, how much
does he weigh now?"


The proud father anwers, "Seventeen pounds."


The bartender is puzzled, concerned, and a little
suspicious. "What happened? He
already weighed 25 pounds the day he was born!"


The Texas father takes a slow swig from his longneck
Lone Star beer, wipes his lips on his shirt
sleeve, leans into the bartender and proudly
says, "Had'm circumcised."
