The IRS decides to audit Ralph, and summons him to

> I'm not sure the IRS finds that believable."

> I'm a great gambler, and I can prove it," says
> Ralph. "How about a

> The auditor thinks for a moment and said, "Okay. Go

> Ralph says, "I'll bet you a thousand dollars that I

> Ralph removes his glass eye and bites it. The

>
> "Are you okay?" the auditor asks.
>
> "Not really," says the attorney. "This morning,

> in here and pee all over an IRS official's desk and
> that you'd be happy
