A Cunning Addict

The chairman of Alcoholics Anonymous meets Jef on the street carrying a bottle of gin. Jef is a member and has trouble with his addiction. “You promised you would stop drinking” the chairman says angrily. “That is true but only half the bottle is for me”, Jef answers. “The other half is for my neighbour”. “Why don’t you poor half the bottle down the gutter right now” suggests the chairman. Upon which Jef replies: “That is not possible, my half is at the bottom of the bottle”.
