An Indian named Joe went to his doctor after a long illness.
The doctor, after a lengthy examination, sighed and looked Joe in the eye, and said, "I`ve some bad news for you. You have cancer, and it can`t be cured. I`d give you two weeks to a month to live." Joe was shocked and saddened by the news but was of solid character. He managed to compose himself and walk from the doctor`s office into the waiting room. There, he saw his son Larry who had been waiting. "Well, son. We Natives celebrate when things are good, and we celebrate when things don`t go so well. In this case, things aren`t so well. I have cancer, and I`ve been given a short time to live so let`s head for the bar and have a few beers." After 3 or 4 beer apiece, the two were feeling a little less somber. There were some laughs and more beers. They were eventually approached by some of Joe's old friends who asked what the two were celebrating. Joe told them that natives celebrate the good and the bad. He went on to tell them that they were drinking to his impending end. Joe told his friends, "I`ve only got a few weeks to live as I have been diagnosed with AIDS." The friends gave Joe their condolences, and they had a couple more beers. After his friends left, Joe`s son leaned over and whispered his confusion. "Dad, I thought you said that you were dying from cancer! You just told your friends that you were dying from AIDS!" Joe said, "I am dying of cancer, son. I just don`t want any of them sleeping with your mother after I`m gone." ^5 hope you lol dude ![]()
