A man was walking down the street when he was approached by a particularly dirty and shabby-looking homeless man who asked him for a hundred dollars for dinner and a warm, dry place to spend the night.
The man took out his wallet, extracted one hundred dollars and asked, "If I give you this money, will you buy some beer with it instead?"
"No, I had to stop drinking years ago," the homeless man replied.
"Will you spend this on a fishing pole and lures instead of food?" the man asked.
"Are you nuts?" replied the homeless man. " I haven't fished in over 20 years!"
"Will you spend the money on a woman in the red light district instead of food?" the man asked.
"What disease would I get for a lousy hundred bucks?" exclaimed the homeless man.
"Will you go down to Space Coast Harley Davidson and buy a chance on the Fatboy raffle?" asked the man.
"No, I gave up motorcycles a long time ago for my wife." the homeless man sadly replied.
"Well," said the man, "I'm not going to give you the money. Instead, I'm going to take you home for a terrific dinner cooked by my wife."
The homeless man was astounded. "Won't your wife be furious with you for doing that? I know I'm dirty, and probably smell pretty disgusting, and my life is a total disaster."
The man replied, "That's okay. I just want her to see what a man looks like who's given up beer, fishing, sex, and motorcycles."
