A man moves into a new neighborhood and on his first free weekend he looks around the area for a new favorite bar. A block from his home he finds a little corner bar. He walks in and takes a seat on a barstool at the end of the bar, away from the locals and orders a beer.
As he sits and drinks, he begins to get a really nice vibe from the locals and the bartender. He allows himself to be drawn into the conversation that is going on and soon he and the locals are laughing and having a great time.
Suddenly in mid-conversation the new guy gets a funny look on his face and stands. Without a word he quickly heads for the door. The bartender immediately takes notice.
“Hey! Are you ok? Did we say something wrong?”
“What? Oh. No. I ... um ... have to go home and use the bathroom.”
“Why can’t you use ours?”
“Well ... I have this condition ... it requires me to take special salts when I go to the bathroom.”
“Special salts? Can’t you take them here?”
“I guess I could ... it’s just that...”
“No arguments. Mi casa su casa.”
“Really? Wow, I love this bar.”
The new guy heads for the bar’s men’s room and after a few minutes he returns to his barstool, but before resuming the conversation he makes an announcement.
“Thank you for welcoming me to this fine establishment I’ve not felt this welcome in a long time. Bartender, I would like to but a round for the house.”
