When the waitress set down his drink, itwas in a huge cup. “Wow, I had heard everything in Texas is bigger,” he toldher.

“That’s right,” she replied. The blind manate his snack and finished his drink. After drinking such a large amount, itwas natural that his next stop was to be the restroom. He asked the waitressfor directions. She told him to turn left at the corner, and then take thesecond door on the right.

Remembering that everything was bigger inTexas, he had his head above water and started shouting “Don’t flush(冲洗)! Don’t flush!”
