"I had a meal last night. I ordered everything in French, surprised everybody; it was a Chinese restaurant.

I said to this Chinese waiter, 'Look, this chicken I got here is cold.'

He said, 'It should be; it's been dead two weeks.'

I said, 'Not only that,' I said. I said... I said it twice, I said, 'He's got one leg shorter than the other.'

He said, 'What do you wanna do with it, eat it or dance with it?'

I said, 'Forget the chicken; give me a lobster. And he brought me this lobster. I said, 'Just a minute, he's only got one claw.'

He said, 'Well he's been in a fight.'

I said, 'Well give me the winner.'"
