A man was walking down the street when he was accosted by a
particularly dirty and shabby-looking homeless man who asked him for a
couple of dollars for dinner.

> The man took out his wallet, extracted ten dollars and asked, "If I
give you this money, will you buy some beer with it instead?"
>
> "No, I had to stop drinking years ago," the homeless man replied.
>
> "Will you use it to gamble instead of buying food?" the man asked.
>
> "No, I don't gamble," the homeless man said. "I need everything I can
get just to stay alive."
>
> "Will you spend this on greens fees at a golf course instead of food?"
the man asked.
>
> "Are you NUTS!" replied the homeless man. "I haven't played golf in 20
years!"
>
> "Will you spend the money on a woman in the red light district instead
of food?" the man asked.
>
> "What disease would I get for ten lousy bucks?!!" exclaimed the
homeless man.
>
> "Well," said the man, "I'm not going to give you the money. Instead,
I'm going to take you home for a terrific dinner cooked by my wife."
>
> The homeless man was astounded.
>
> "Won't your wife be furious with you for doing that? I know I'm dirty,
and I probably smell pretty disgusting."
>
> The man replied, "That's okay. I just want her to see what a man looks
like who's given up beer, gambling, golf, and sex."
