This is why I didn't show up for work yesterday. I was cleaning out my
wife's grandpa's cellar and found 12 bottles of his home-bottled grape
wine under the steps. My wife told me to empty the contents of each and
every bottle down the sink, or else. I agreed to do the unpleasant task.

I withdrew the cork form the first bottle and poured the contents down
the sink, with the exception of one glass, which I drank. I extracted
the cork from the second bottle, did likewise, and drank one glass, just
to check the taste to see if the old fellow knew his wine making. He did.

I then opened the third bottle, and poured it, too, down the sink, but
not until drinking one full glass to check the purity. It was very good.
I did this, also with the fourth bottle. One glass for myself, and the
rest down the sink. I pulled the bottle from the cork of the next, and
drank one sink out of it and threw the rest down the glass. I pulled the
sink out of the next glass and poured the cork from the bottle, then
corked the sink with the glass, bottled the drink and drank the pour.

When I had everything emptied, I steadied the house with one hand,
counted the bottles, corks, glasses and sinks with the other, which were
29, and as the house came by I counted them again, and finally had all
the houses in one bottle, which I drank. I felt so foolish that I
couldn't go upstairs and congratulate my wife to tell her what a great
winemaker her grandpa was. I will do that after climbing the basement
steps the next time they come by.

and snip the rest of the joke

If you're the BOB from Hurricane Cross, you can use a little
humor about now. Me and mine bailed out twice from our
double trailer in Tampa. I gotta tell you it ain't fun. Unlike
some of our unfortunate friends, we got away clean.
