A man was sitting in the bar when he noticed another
patron a few stools away. The guy had a body like charles atlas, but his head was the size
of a thimble.The first man said
"please excuse me for staring, but I can't help but be curious as to why your body is
so well
developed, but your head is so small?". The man said "buy me a drink and I'll
tell you."
The drink was ordered and the story began.
" I was in the navy and my ship was sunk by a torpedo. I was the only survivor and I
managed to make it to a deserted island a few miles away.
I had been there for several months and was
sitting on the beach one day waiting for a bird or fish to come by so I would have
something to eat, looking up I saw a beautiful mermaid sunning on a nearby rock. She swam
over to me and informed me that she was a magical mermaid and could grant me three wishes.
Great I said. I'd like to be rescued. She
slapped the water with her tail and a ship appeared, sailing straight for my island.
Next I asked for a body like charles atlas.
Another slap of the tail and here it is.
Then, noticing how beautiful she was and
all my other wishes fulfilled I asked if I could make love to her.
She said, no it just wouldn't work her
being half fish and all. So I said well, how about a little head then? Â
