The Coffee Place's Joke Stack
A fellow travelled to Alaska to get a brown bear. He wanted a bearskin rug for his den, and a Kodiak that he'd skinned out himself was all that would please him.
However, when he got there he found that all of the outfitters and guides were way out of his price range. Finally, about ready to give up and go home, he ran across a weathered old cuss who said, "Heck I can get you TWO bears for what you wanna pay. Only thing is, ya' gotta skin 'em out yerself."
Our hero thought this sounded pretty good so he paid the up front fees and off they went into the woods. They finally came to a beaten down old shack on the edge of a clearing. The guide told the tenderfoot, "Go ahead and make yerself at home. I'm gonna scout out some bears."
Well, the fire in the stove was going and the cabin was beginning to feel warm and cozy when he heard a muffled cry in the distance. He looked outside and saw the guide running for all his might toward the cabin with a big brown bear hot on his heels. The sound came again, and this time he heard the guide yelling, "OPEN THE DOOR!"
He swung the door open. The guide rushed in and the bear came in right behind him. The guide ran back outside, slammed the door shut and yelled out, "OK, You skin this one out and I'll go get yer other one!"
