There is a diner in New Orleans that advertises that it will serve you anything you want, but if they can't, they will give you $5,000 as an apology. A man passing by sees this message advertised at the entrance. Thinking it's probably a scam, he decides to try it out anyway. 

     As he enters the diner, a waitress seats him at a table. She asks the man, "What can I get you, sir?" 

     The man thinks for a moment and says, "How about an elephant's ear and a muffin?" 

     The waitress replies, "You bet. I'll be right back with your order." The waitress then heads back to the kitchen. 

     After waiting nearly 20 minutes, the man begins to think that this is going to be an easy $5,000. At the same moment, the waitress returns. Appearing a little anxious, the waitress asks, "I'm sorry, sir, but would you mind telling me what kind of elephant you want this ear from?" 

     The man is stunned. "Um, how about an Indian elephant?" replies the man. 

     The waitress says, "Thank you, sir." as she heads back to the kitchen. Not a minute later, the waitress returns again. "I'm sorry, sir. Would you like the left or the right ear?" she asks. 

     The man is starting to become very nervous at this point. "Uh, the left ear, I guess." 

     "Thank you, sir," replies the waitress as she returns to the kitchen. The man is beginning to wonder what he has gotten himself into, as he has no idea what an elephant ear costs. 

     A few minutes later, the waitress returns with a platter of food and a $5,000 check. The waitress tells the man, "Here is your order, sir, and please accept this check and our apologies, but we're out of muffins today."
