The Old Lady Bet

A little old lady went into the Bank of Canada one day, carrying a
bag of money. She insisted that she must speak with the president of
the bank to open a savings account because, "It's a lot ofmoney!"
After much hemming and hawing, the bank staff finally ushered her
into the president's office (the customer is always right!). The bank
president the asked her how much she would like to deposit. She replied,
"$165,000!" and dumped the cash out of her bag onto
his desk.

The president was of course curious as to how she came by all this
cash, so he asked her, "Ma'am, I'm surprised you're carrying so much
cash around.. Where did you get this money?" The old lady replied, "I
make bets." The president then asked, "Bets? What kind of bets?" The
old woman said, "Well, for example, I'll bet you $25,000 that your balls
are square."

"Ha!" laughed the president, "That's a stupid bet. You can never
win that kind of bet!" The old lady challenged, "So, would you
like to take my bet?"

"Sure," said the president, "I'll bet $25,000 that my balls are not
square!" The little old lady then said, "Okay, but since there is a lot
of money involved, may I bring my lawyer with me tomorrow at 10:00am as
a witness?" "Sure!" replied the confident president.

That night, the president got very nervous about the bet and spent a
long time time in front of a mirror checking his balls, turning from
side to side, again and again. He thoroughly checked them out
until he was sure that there was absolutely no way his ballswere
square and that he would win the bet.

The next morning, at precisely 10:00 am,the little old lady appeared
withher lawyer at the president's office. She introduced the lawyer
to the president and repeated the bet: $25,000 says the president's
balls are square!" he president agreed with the bet again and the old
lady asked him to drop his pants so they could all see. The president
complied. The little old lady peered closely at his balls and then asked
if she could feel them. "Well, Okay," said the president, "$25,000 is a
lot of money, so I guess you should be absolutely sure." Just then, he
noticed that the lawyer was quietly banging his head against the wall.

The president asked the old lady, "What the hell's the matter with
your lawyer?" She replied, "Nothing, except I bet him $100,000 that at
10:00am today, I'd have The Bank of Canada's president's balls in my
hand."
