"Balls said the queen, if I had them I'd be king!"
Give me magnums, or give me death. Down with little bottles. If
you can't drink a true bottle of wine, don't!
More glass versus liquid in ratio.

And this joke has been circulating for a while,
but a new twist has been added by Cris W. of
Sacramento
A woman and a man are involved in a car accident; it's a bad one. Both of
their cars are totally demolished, but amazingly, neither of them are hurt.
After they crawl out of their cars, the woman says, 'So you're a man,
that's interesting. I'm a woman. Wow, just look at our cars! There's nothing
left, but fortunately we are unharmed. This must be a sign that we should meet
and be friends, and live together in peace for the rest of our days.'
The man replied, 'I agree with you completely. This must be a sign!'
The woman continued, 'And look at this, here's another miracle. My car is
completely demolished but this bottle of wine didn't break. Surely God wants us
to drink this wine and celebrate our good fortune.'
Then she hands the bottle to the man. The man nods his head in agreement,
opens it and drinks half the bottle and then hands it back to the woman.
The woman takes the bottle, immediately puts the cap back on, and hands it
back to the man.
The man asks, 'Aren't you having any?'
The woman replies, 'No. I think I'll just wait for the police.'
Lesson to be learned: If the
man had consumed only a 375 ml. half bottle, he probably
would have still been under the legal limit for blood alcohol (equivalent
to one glass of wine).
