Cowboy rides into town, hitches
his horse outside the saloon and goes inside. He orders a large
whisky, slowly drinks it, and leaves again. Upon discovering his
horse is missing he storms back in. He says to the bar; "I'm
gonna have another drink, and if my horse isn't back by the time
I'm finished, the same thing's gonna happen here as happened at
Apache Springs last week" With that he orders a large
whisky, slowly drinks it, and leaves the bar. His horse has
returned so he mounts and makes to ride off. A small boy who
heard the talk in the bar asks "Hey, mister, what *did*
happen in Apache Springs last week ?."
Cowboy replies " I had to walk, son"
