Sales rep
A sales rep finds himself driving through his old home town and stops at what used to be his local. At the bar he ask the barkeep "does old man Goldberg the shirt maker still drink in here" and the barkeep says "yes, but you just missed him he's gone to get some cotton but he won't be long" so the rep orders a drink and waits. An hour passes and the rep says " I can't wait any longer can you tell him Harry asked after him"..A month later the rep finds himself driving through his old home town again and stops at the local. At the bar he ask the barkeep "Has old man Goldberg the shirt maker been in today" and the barkeep says "yes, but you just missed him he's gone to get some cotton but he won't be long" so the rep orders a drink and waits. An hour passes and the rep says " I can't wait any longer can you tell him Harry asked after him". A month later the rep finds himself driving through his old home town again and stops at the local. At the bar he ask the barkeep "Has old man Goldberg the shirt maker been in today" and the barkeep says "I've got some bad news. Old man Goldberg died last week and they buried him in the local cemetery". So the rep goes off to pay his respects, finds the grave and reads the headstone which says HERE LIES OLD MAN GOLDBERG, GONE BUT NOT FOR COTTON !!!
