Zero

[squiffy2]

A zero walked into a bar one day and went right up to the counter
and asked the bartender for a whiskey sour. "I want a whiskey sour,
please," said the zero.

The bartender replied, "Look, buddy, we don't serve zeros in this
bar, so either get out or I'm going to kick you out."

The zero got angry and shouted, "I WANT A WHISKEY SOUR, AND I WANT
IT NOW!!!!" banging the counter top for emphasis and dramatic effect.

The bartender, thinking it more like comic relief, retorted, "I told
you, no zeros in this bar. NOW GET OUT OF HERE OR ELSE!!"

The zero promptly left the bar.

On the way out, he noticed headlines about a local university
professor doing all kinds of experiments with the effects of atomic
rays on growth and metabolism.

The zero headed to see the Prof, and got accepted as a subject in a
series of experiments with alpha, beta, and gamma rays.

Two days later, now a huge, strong, powerful zero glowing, a bright
electric blue, he wandered by the bar again.

He decided to go back in for a drink. He went straight up to the bar
and asked, "I'd like a whiskey sour, please."

The bartender did a double take, and said, "Hey, aren't you the zero
that came in just a couple days ago?"

And the zero said: "No, I'm Alpha-rayed Naught."
