A Bottle of Merlot

A man asked a waiter to take a bottle of Merlot to an
unusually attractive woman sitting alone at a table in a cosy little restaurant.

So the waiter took the Merlot to the woman and said,
'This is from the gentleman who is seated over there.' and
indicated the sender with a nod of his head.

She stared at the wine coolly for a few seconds, not
looking at the man, then decided to send a reply to him by a
note.

The waiter, who was lingering nearby for a response, took
the note from her and conveyed it to the gentleman.

The note read:

'For me to accept this bottle, you need to have a
Mercedes in your garage, a million dollars in the bank and 7
inches in your pants'.

After reading the note, the man decided to compose one of
his own in return. He folded the note, handed it to the
waiter and instructed him to deliver it to the lady.

It read:

'Just to let you know things aren't always what they
appear to be, I have a Ferrari Maranello, BMW Z8, Mercedes
CL600, and a Porsche Turbo in my several garages; I have beautiful homes
in Aspen , Miami, and a 10,000 acre ranch in Louisiana. There is over
twenty million dollars in my bank account and portfolio.

But, not even for a woman as beautiful as you are.........would I cut off
three inches!! Just send the bottle back.'
