The Waiter and the Soup

An old man calls the waiter over to his table.

"What would you like, sir?" asks the waiter.

"Taste the soup," he says.

"Is the soup too cold?" asks the waiter.

"Taste the soup," says the old man.

"Is it too salty?" asks the waiter.

"Taste the soup!" says the old man.

"Is there a fly in it?" asks the waiter.

"Taste the soup!" the old man insists.

The waiter looks down: "There's no spoon!"

"Aha!" exclaims the old man.
