Pierre and François were having lunch
together. Pierre was very sad and declared, "My love life is
finished."
"There are remedies," François told him. "Try oysters. Some people say they are miraculous restorers of virility."
"I am desperate," said Pierre. "I have a date tonight and will do as you suggest. Garçon,
bring me a dozen oysters." He downed them, ordered another dozen, then a dozen more.
"You shouldn't overdo it," François cautioned. "Oysters are very powerful. Let's go now. Call me tomorrow and tell me how you went."
The next day, the phone rang. "Oysters, bah!" said Pierre. "They are overrated. I ate three dozen, did I not? Well, only nine worked!"
