Ole - der painter
Ole, while not a brilliant man, was a gifted portrait artist. His fame
grew and soon people from all over the country were coming to him for
paintings.
One day, a beautiful young woman pulled up to his house in a stretch
limo. She asked Ole if he would paint her in the nude. This was the first
time anyone had made this request. The beautiful lady said money was no
object; she was willing to pay $5,000.
Not wanting to get into trouble with his wife, Ole asked the lady to
wait while he went in the house and conferred with Lena, his wife.
In a few minutes he returned and said to the lady, "Ya shure, yoo
betcha. I'll paint yoo in da nude, but I'll heff ta leave on my socks so
I'll heff a place to vipe my brushes."
"Sometimes, business decisions must be based not on economics,
but on what is right." ~ Ivan Howes
