A doctor made it his regular habit to stop off at a bar for a hazelnut
daiquiri on his way home. The bartender knew of his habit, and would
always have the drink waiting at precisely 5:03 p.m.
One afternoon, as the end of he workday
approached, the bartender was dismayed to find that he was out of hazelnut
extract. Thinking quickly, he made a daiquiri made with hickory nuts and
set it on the bar.
The doctor came in at his regular time, took
one sip of the drink and exclaimed,
"This isn't a hazelnut
daiquiri!"
"No, I'm sorry," replied the
bartender, "it's a hickory daiquiri, doc."
