Remember Your Change
A Scotsman, an Irishman and an Englishman stood
by the grave of a common friend. The Irishman, in a gesture of impractical
generosity, dropped a pound coin into the grave; the Englishman, not to be
outdone, dropped in a two pound coin and retrieved the pound coin; the
Scotsman in turn wrote a cheque for three pounds and pocketed the two pound
coin.
