[(-:)]

One day a piece of string is walking along a New York street feeling
perticularly lonley.  After all, how many of us ever take the time to talk to,
let alone notice a piece of string.  So anyway, the string slinks into a bar.

"I'd like a beer please", says the string.

The bar-tender looks up for the first time and notices the string. "OUT!" he
thunders, "we don't serve your type in here!".

So the string slinks off to another bar, where it hides itself in a corner.
The waiter comes up, takes one look and says, "You're string! We don't serve
your type here! Out".

The string realizes that some sort of disguise is in order, so it ties a knot
in one end of itself and frizzes out the strands at the end.  It slithers into
another bar and boldly perches upon a stool at the bar.

The bar tender comes over, and peering intently at the string says, "Say...,
You're not STRING, are you?"

To which the string calmly replies:

			"'fraid not".
