A Proud Father

A Texan is drinking in a New York bar when he gets a call on his cellphone.

He hangs up, grinning from ear to ear, and orders a round of drinks foreverybody in the bar announcing his wife has produced a typical Texas babyboy weighing 25 pounds. Nobody can believe that any new baby can weigh inat 25 pounds, but the Texan just shrugs, "That's about average down home,folks... like I said my boy's a typical Texas baby boy."

Two weeks later he returns to the bar. The bartender says, "Say you're thefather of that typical Texas baby that weighed 25 pounds at birth.

Everybodys been making bets about how big he'd be in two weeks. So howmuch does he weigh now?

The proud father answers, "Seventeen pounds."

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

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