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

With that, 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
