Never Underestimate A Little Old Lady!

[Mr-Lex]

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 the cash 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 of bets?"

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 thatkind 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 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 an! d the old lady asked him to drop

his pants so they could all see. The president did. 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."

I think it's a joke, not spam... But why did you bump a thread from 2003?!?!

The spammer dug the thread up, but the post has been removed.

Ahh, I see! Strange thing for a spammer to do though - they/it usually just starts new threads in every forum!

If you'd seen the post, you'd have thought it even stranger - half a dozen lines of garbage to my eyes - takes all sorts I guess.
