The Bet

閱讀 : 次

    A little old lady went into the Bank of Canada one
    day, carrying a bag of money. She insisted that she
    must speak with the president of the bank to open a
    savings account because, "It's a lot of money!" After
    much hemming and hawing, the bank staff finally
    ushered her into the president's office (the customer
    is always right!).The bank president then asked her
    how much she would like to deposit.
    She replied, $165,000!" and dumped thecash out of her
    bag onto his desk.
    The president was of course curious as to how she
    came by all this cash, so he asked her, "Ma'am, I'm
    surprised you're carrying so much cash around. Where
    did you get this money?" The old lady replied, "I
    make bets."
    The president then asked,"Bets? What kind ofbets?"
    The old woman said, "Well, for example, I'll bet you
    $25,000 that your balls are square."
    "Ha!" laughed the president, "That's a stupid bet.
    You can never win that kind of bet!"
    The old lady challenged, "So, would you like to take
    my bet?"
    "Sure," said the president, "I'll bet $25,000 that
    my balls are not square!"
    The little old lady then said, "Okay, but since there
    is a lot of money involved, may I bring my lawyer
    with me tomorrow at 10:00 am as a witness?"
    "Sure!" replied the confident president.
    That night, the president got very nervous about the
    bet and spent a long time in front of a mirror
    checking his balls, turning from side to side, again
    and again. He thoroughly checked them out until he
    was sure that there was absolutely no way his balls
    were square, and that he would win the bet.
    The next morning, at precisely 10:00 am, the little
    old lady appeared with her lawyer at the president's
    office.
    She introduced the lawyer to the president and
    repeated the bet: "$25,000 says the president's balls
    are square!"
    The president agreed with the bet again and the old
    lady asked him to drop his pants so they could all
    see.
    The president complied.
    The little old lady peered closely at his balls, and
    then asked if she could feel them.
    "Well, Okay," said the president, "$25,000 is a lot
    of money, so I guess you should be absolutely sure."
    Just then, he noticed that the lawyer was quietly
    banging his head against the wall.
    The president asked the old lady, "What the hell's
    the matter with your lawyer?"
    She replied, "Nothing, except I bet him $100,000 that
    at 10:00 am today, I'd have The Bank of Canada's
    president's balls in my hand."
