>>An older, white haired man walked into a jewelry store one Friday evening >>with a beautiful young gal at his side. He told the jeweler he was >>looking for a special ring for his girlfriend. >> >>The jeweler looked through his stock and brought out a $5,000 ring and >>showed it to him. The old man said, "I don't think you understand, I want >>something very special." >> >>At that statement, the jeweler went to his special stock and brought >>another ring over. "Here's a stunning ring at only $40,000," the jeweler >>said. The young lady's eyes sparkled and her whole body trembled with >>excitement. The old man seeing this said, "We'll take it." >> >>The jeweler asked how payment would be made and the old man stated, by >>check. " I know you need to make sure my check is good, so I'll write it >>now and you can call the bank Monday to verify the funds and I'll pick the >>ring up Monday afternoon," he said. >> >>Monday morning, a very teed-off jeweler phoned the old man. "There's no >>money in that account." >> >>"I know", said the old man, "but can you imagine the weekend I had?" >> "I would remind you that extremism in the defense of liberty is no vice. I would remind you also that moderation in the pursuit of justice is no virtue." Barry M Goldwater. | ||
