need "'fraid not" joke
Beth Landau
Does anybody remember the old joke that starts out:
A piece of rope walks into a bar...
And ends:
"'Fraid not!"
It's been bugging me - anyone know???

A rope walks into a bar and orders a drink. The bartender says we don't
serve your kind...no rope allowed.
The rope goes out of the bar and roughs itself up to the point of being
frayed and then ties itself into a knot. The rope re-enters the bar and
orders a drink
"Say, aren't you the rope that was just in here a minute ago?"
" No, I am afraid not"

I heard it just a little different, I think it reads better:
Three pieces of rope walk into a bar. The bartender tells them, "We don't
serve your kind in here. You'll have to leave." Dejected, the three
pieces of rope leave the bar. They're talking outside when one of them
says, "Hey I know how we can get served at that bar." "Just do what I
do," he said. "First, tie yourself into a knot. Then, pull all of the
strands in your head until they are all messed up. Now, follow me into the
bar and do what I do." So, they all go into the bar and ask for a drink.
The bartender pours them a drink and they sit down. Then, the bartender
goes over to one of the pieces and asks, "Aren't you that piece of rope
that came in here a little while ago?" The piece of rope then replies,
"No, I'm afraid not!"

a string walks into a bar and orders a beer.
"Sorry" says the bartender "we dont servee strings here"
so the string walks outside and ruffles his ends and loops himself all
around
and walks back into the bar and orders a beer.
"Hey" says the bartender "aren't you a string?"
"nope" says the string "I'm a frayed knot."

Okay, this is a dumb joke, but you asked for it...
Three ropes walk into a bar. One rope has to go to the bathroom, and while
he is walking away, he overhears the bartender telling the other two ropes
that he doesn't serve ropes. While he is in the bathroom, he ties himself
into a knot and starts to fray. He comes out of the bathroom and walks up
to the bar. The bartender asks him, "Are you a rope?" The rope answers,
"Nope, frayed knot!"

aren't you a rope?" The rope says yes. The bartender says, "Get out! We
don't serve ropes here." So the rope goes to the next bar. The rope
walks in and orders a beer. The bartender notices that he's a rope and
says, "You're a rope!! We don't serve ropes here. Get out!!" So the rope
goes to the next bar. He decides to learn from his two previous
experiences. He walks in and orders a beer. The bartender asks, "Aren't
you a rope?" The rope replies, "I'm a frayed knot [fraid not]!!"
HA HA HA HA !!!!

OK, these three strings are trying to get a drink at a bar, so the
first one walks up to the bar and asks the bartender for a drink. The
bartender scowls at the string, and points to a sign on the wall that
reads "No Strings" and tells him to get lost. He goes outside and
informs his comrads that he has had no luck. The second string puts on
a cowboy hat and saunters in, proclaiming "Hey there pardner, fetch me
a beer." The bartender starts to comply, but catches himself and peers
at the string. "Hey you're no cowboy, you're a string, get lost!" Well
the last string has a flash of inspiration. He ties himself in a knot,
ruffles his hair all up, and slithers into the bar. "Hey, can't you
guys read?! The sign says No Strings!" the bartender proclaims. "And
you're a string ain't ya?" The string tilts his head and says "No, I'm
a fraid knot!"

You're all just twisting each other's words around. It's knot
