It’s forty below zero one-winter night in Alaska. Pat is drinking at his local
saloon and the bartender says to him, “You owe me quite a bit on your tab.”
“Sorry,” says Pat�,I’m flat broke this week.”
“That’s okay,” says the bartender.
“I’ll just write your name and the amount you owe me right here on the wall.”
“But�, says Pat, “I don’t want any of my friends to see that�.
“They won’t,” says the bartender.
“I’ll just hang your parka over it until it’s paid.”
