An Irish gent walks into a neighborhood pub for the first time, and orders 3 pints of Guinness from the barkeep. The barman obliges with a puzzled look on his face and shortly presents 3 pints in front of the man... The man lines the pints up in a row and takes a sip from each one of the pints until the contents of all 3 glasses have been consumed. Then, the man asks for his tab, pays, and goes on his way....
On his next visit, before getting his order, the barman suggests that he may want to order one pint at a time explaining that the beer will stay cooler longer and not get flat. The Irishman thanked him for the suggestion, and explained that he comes from a close family of 3 brothers. They promised their dear mum back in Ireland that they would remain close no matter where life's journeys would take them. So, they all agreed that wherever they may find themselves, they would always order extra pints and drink in honor of the other two... The barman satisfyingly nodded his head in approval of the man's tradition, and drew his 3 pints.
Over the next several weeks, the Irishman became a regular of the pub, and the barman would always have 3 pints of Guinness waiting for him at his regular stool. One day, the barman notices that the man pushed one of the pints away and only took sips from two of the pints in front of him. The barman assumed that one of his brothers must have passed, and he went over to the Irishman and respectfully offered his condolences. The Irishman looked up cheerfully and explained, "Thank for your concern, but it's nothing like that.... My brothers are both fine.... I just quit drinking is all".....
