Three guys in a bar: a Texan, a Californian, and a Seattleite. They drink, they get crazy.
The Texan grabs a bottle of tequila, unscrews the top, takes a good swig, and throws the bottle into the air. He then pulls out a forty-five caliber pistol and shoots the bottle, spraying tequila all over everything.
The other patrons in the bar shout, "Hey, why'd you waste that?"
The Texan says, "Hell, it's just tequila. Where I come from, we got lots of tequila."
The Californian, not to be outdone, whips out a corkscrew and opens a bottle of Chardonnay, pours a bit into a glass, swirls it around, sips it, then throws the bottle in the air and shoots it with a little silver pistol.
The patrons again express their displeasure and astonishment at the waste of a bottle of good wine.
The Californian says, "Napa Valley, we got lots of great wine up there."
The Seattleite borrows the corkscrew, pops the top off a bottle of Red Hook, and downs the whole bottle. He throws the empty bottle into the air, shoots the Californian, and simultaneously catches the falling bottle.
Now the people are screaming, "Why'd you do that?"
The Seattleite replies, "I'm from Seattle. We've got lots of Californians, but I got to recycle this bottle."
