This is a joke that is supposed to bring you luck. * * * * * * * * * * * *
> * * * * * * * * * * An elderly woman walked into the Bank of Canada one
> morning with a purse full of money. She wanted to open a savings account and
> insisted on talking to the president of the Bank because, she said, she had
> a lot of money. After many lengthy discussions (after all, the client is
> always right) an employee took the elderly woman to the president's office.
> The president of the Bank asked her how much she wanted to deposit. She
> placed her purse on his desk and replied, '$165,000'. The president was
> curious and asked her how she had been able to save so much money. The
> elderly woman replied that she made bets. The president was surprised and
> asked, 'What kind of bets?' The elderly woman replied, 'Well, I bet you
> $25,000 that your testicles are square.' The president started to laugh and
> told the woman that it was impossible to win a bet like that. The woman
> never batted an eye. She just looked at the president and said, 'Would you
> like to take my bet?' 'Certainly', replied the president. 'I bet you $25,000
> that my testicles are not square.' 'Done', the elderly woman answered. 'But
> given the amount of money involved, if you don't mind I would like to come
> back at 10 o' clock tomorrow morning with my lawyer as a witness.' 'No
> problem', said the president of the Bank confidently. That night, the
> president became very nervous about the bet and spent a long time in front
> of the mirror examining his testicles, turning them this way and that,
> checking them over again and again until he was positive that no one could
> consider his testicles as square and reassuring himself that there was no
> way he could lose the bet. The next morning at exactly 10 o'clock the
> elderly woman arrived at the president's office with her lawyer and
> acknowledged the $25,000 bet made the day before that t he president's
> testicles were square. The president confirmed that the bet was the same as
> the one made the day before. Then the elderly woman asked him to drop his
> pants etc. so that she and her lawyer could see clearly. The president was
> happy to oblige. The elderly woman came closer so she could see better and
> asked the president if she could touch them. 'Of course', said the
> president. 'Given the amount of money involved, you should be 100% sure.'
> The elderly woman did so with a little smile. Suddenly the president noticed
> that the lawyer was banging his head against the wall. He asked the elderly
> woman why he was doing that and she replied, 'Oh, it's probably because I
> bet him $100,000 that around 10 o'clock in the morning I would be holding
> the balls of the President of the Bank of Canada !' The origin of this
> Canadian story is unknown but it brings luck to everyone to whom it is sent.
> Whoever breaks the chain would definitely be unlucky. Do not keep this
> letter. And do not send money. Just forward it to five of your friends to
> whom you wish good luck. Something good will happen to you in the next four
> days. If the chain is not broken, you will have good luck during the four
> days. Even if all you do is make someone laugh, send it on! * * * * * * * *
