A Canadian man walks into a bar...
Agent 9 enjoyed "A (something) walks into a bar..." so much that he sent us this contribution.
A guy goes into a bar in Toronto where there is a robot bartender. The robot says, "What will you have?"
The guy replies, "Whiskey."
The robot brings back his drink and asks, "What’s your IQ?"
The guy says, "168."
The robot continues to talk about physics, space exploration, and medical technology.
After the guy leaves and the more he thinks about it, the more curious he gets, so he decides to go back.
The robot asks, "What’s your drink?"
The guy answers, "Whiskey."
The robot returns with his drink and asks, "What’s your IQ?"
The man replies, "100."
The robot talks about the Raptors, Crown Royal, and the Leafs.
The man finishes his drink, leaves, but is so interested in his experiment that he decides to try again.
He enters the bar and, as usual, the robot asks him what he want to drink.
The man replies, "Whiskey."
The robot brings the drink and asks, "What’s your IQ?"
The man answers, "50."
The robot leans in real close and asks, "So . . . are . . . you people . . . still happy . . . with Trudeau?"
American readers may feel free to subtitute different cities, brand/team names, and candidates for the presidensity. You're welcome.

What does Ed. look like?
An anonymous reader [Rufus Leaking, of Dildo, NL - Ed.] writes: The little "About Me" blurb at the upper right of your screen sometimes features a picture of Walt, and occasionally a cartoon of someone who I guess is Poor Len Canayen [Don't bet. Ed.], but you have never shown a picture of Ed. How about it?
Walt is always happy to answer a question from an assiduous reader. Here ya go...
I'm not sure if this is the Ed. that Rufus had in mind. This is Ed the mobile robot, the creation of researchers at the Toronto Rehabilitation Institute. Ed, and his partner Coach are designed and built to help and support people with disabilities, including dementia patients. Click here to read all about it.
And yes, helping people with disabilities does sound like our Ed.'s job description.
