Old man and young woman

[bakergeol]

An older, white-haired man walked into a Jewelry store one Friday evening with a beautiful young woman 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.

The old man said, "No, I'd like to see something more special."

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.
Seeing this, the old man 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."

Monday morning, the jeweler phoned the old man and told him "There's no money in that account!"

"I know," said the old man, "But let me tell you about my weekend.....!"

LOL - the power of a check... Reminds me of this joke:

A rich man wanted to take his $3 million to the grave. He asked his priest, doctor, and attorney to each hold $1 million until his death and to then put the money in his coffin. The old man passed away and each of the three men stopped by the coffin to pay their respects.

• Afterwards, the priest confessed that he had kept the money for the church orphanage.
• Then the doctor admitted that he too had misdirected the money to the local children's hospital.
• The attorney was outraged at their breach of trust; he had slipped a check in the coffin for the full amount.

There's a similar story of an Irishman by the name of Ol Patrick, who asked his friends to pour a special bottle of whiskey on his coffin when he died.

The friends agreed.

When Ol Patrick met his maker, one of his friends started to pee on his coffin.

When confronted, the one friend stated that Ol Patrick didn't say he couldn't pass the whiskey thru his kidneys first.
