Not from a show, but a jewellery joke,
A handsome white-haired man walked into a jeweller’s shop late one
Friday, with a beautiful young lady on his side.
“I’m looking for a special ring for my girlfriend,” he said.
The jeweller looks through his stock, and takes out an outstanding
ring priced at $5,000.
“I don’t think you understand; I want something unique.” he said.
At that, the jeweller went and fetched his special stock from the
safe.“Here’s one stunning ring at $40,000.”
The girls’ eyes sparkled, and the man said that he would take it.
“How are you paying?”
“I’ll pay by cheque, but of course you will want to contact the
bank to make sure that everything is in order, so I’ll write a check
and you can phone the bank, then I’ll fetch the ring on Monday.”
Monday morning a very annoyed jeweller phones the man, “You (insert
appropriate expletive here), you lied to me - there’s no money in
that account.”
“I know”,came the reply, “but can you imagine what a fantastic
weekend I had?”
