<p>An elderly lady walked into a branch of the Chase Manhattan Bank building
holding a large paper bag in her hand. She told the young man at the window
that she wished to take the $3 million she had in the bag and open an account
with the bank. She said that first, thought, she would like to meet the
President of Chase Manhattan Bank. Due to the amount of money involved, the
teller seemed to think that that was a reasonable request and after opening
the paper bag and seeing bundles of $1,000 bills which amounted to right
around $3 million, telephoned the President's secretary to obtain an
appointment for the woman.
<p>The woman was escorted upstairs and ushered into the president's office.
Introductions were made and she stated that she liked to get to know the
people she did business with on a more personal level. The bank president
then asked her how she came into such a large sum of money."Was it an
inheritance?" he asked."No," she answered."Was it from playing the stock
market?" he inquired."No," she replied.He was quiet for a second, trying
to think of where this elderly woman could possibly have come up with $3
million dollars."I bet," she stated."As in horses?" he asked."No," she
replied. "I bet people."
<p>Seeing his confusion, she explained that she just bet on different things
with people. All of a sudden she said, "I'll bet you $25,000 that by10:00
o'clock tomorrow morning your balls will be square." The bank president
figured she must be off her rocker and decided to take her on her bet.
He didn't know how he could lose. For the rest of the day he was very
careful. He decided to stay home that evening and take no chances as there
was $25,000 at stake. When he got up in the morning and took his shower,
he checked to make sure everything was okay. There was no difference in
his scrotal appearance. He looked the same as he always had.
<p>He went to work and waited for the woman to come in at 10:00 o'clock,
humming as he went. He knew this would be his lucky day -- how often did
he get handed $25,000 for doing nothing? At 10:00 o'clock sharp the woman
was shown into his office. With her was a man. When the bank president
asked what the other man was doing in the office, she informed the
president that he was her lawyer and she always took him along when there
was that much money involved."Well," she asked, "what about our bet?"" I don't
know how to tell you this," he replied, "but I'm the same as I've always
been, only $25,000 richer!"
<p>The lady seemed to accept this, but requested that she be able to see
herself. The bank president thought this was a reasonable request,
considering the amount of money involved, and dropped his trousers. She
instructed him to bend over and then she grabbed hold of him. Sure enough,
everything was fine. His balls were not square.The bank president then
looked up and saw her lawyer, standing across the room banging his head
against the wall.
<p>"What's wrong with him?"he inquired."Oh, him," she answered. "I bet
him $100,000 that by 10:00 o'clock this morning I'd have the president of
Chase Manhattan Bank by the balls."</font>
