A preacher was completing a temperance sermon; with great expression he said, "If I had all the beer in the world, I'd take it and throw it into the river."
With even greater emphasis he said, "And if I had all the wine in the world, I'd take it and throw it into the river."
And finally, he said, "And if I had all the whiskey in the world, I'd take it and throw it into the river."
He then sat down.
