Another true story:

            When cell phones were first becoming popular one of my colleagues of somewhat dubious character showed me a phone he had gotten on the black market. He claimed it was stolen and that it only cost him $100, a bargain? He had that thing to his ear constantly for about a week then it went dead and a message came up to call a certain number. He panicked thinking that if he called the number they would be able to trace the stolen phone and arrest him, so he wiped all the prints off of it and put it in a city park trash bin. On reflection what he had was a cheap pay-as-you-go phone with some minutes on it worth maybe $30. This only proves what P.T. Barnum said, “You can’t cheat an honest man.” and “There’s one (a sucker) born every minute”. My colleague wasn’t with us very long.


Please Take Note:   This should put to rest any comments made by literary critics around the world. It proves without a doubt that I do know how to write.... It's even got a seal on it.
