How clean can cold water get your dishes?
John went to visit his 90-year-old grandfather in a very
secluded, rural area of Georgia.
After spending a great evening chatting the night away,
John's grandfather prepared breakfast of bacon, eggs and
toast. However, John noticed a film like substance on his
plate, and questioned his grandfather asking,
"Are these plates clean?"
His grandfather replied, "They're as clean as cold water can
get them. Just you go ahead and finish your meal, Sonny!"
For lunch, the old man made hamburgers. Again, John was
concerned about the plates as his appeared to have tiny
specks around the edge that looked like dried egg and asked,
"Are you sure these plates are clean?"
Without looking up the old man said, "I told you before,
Sonny, those dishes are as clean as cold water can get them.
Now don't you fret, I don't want to hear another word about
it!"
Later that afternoon, John was on his way to a nearby town
and as he was leaving, his grandfather's dog started to
growl, and wouldn't let him pass. John yelled and said,
"Grandfather, your dog won't let me get to my car."
Without diverting his attention from the football game he
was watching on TV, the old man shouted....
"COLDWATER, GO LAY DOWN!!!!"
