\begin{document}

A Texan, a New Yorker, and a Vermonter were drinking their favorite
beverages in a bar.

The Texan drained his glass of tequila, threw the half full bottle up
in the air, drew and fired his pistol, shattering the bottle.
The other two were shocked at his ruining perfectly good tequila.
The Texan however, simply drew himself up and announced:
``Where I come from, we have plenty of tequila.''

The New Yorker, not to be outdone, drained his glass of wine,
threw the wine bottle into the air, drew and fired his pistol,
also shattering his bottle.
Looking over at the other two with an air of superiority, he announced,
``Where I come from, we have plenty of fine wine and the best of everything!''

The Vermonter drained his bottle of beer, threw it up in the air,
drew his deer rifle, and shot the New Yorker dead.
He then caught the bottle on the way down and showed it to the Texan:
``Where I come from,'' he said, ``we recycle these \dots\ and we have
plenty of New Yorkers.''
