A balding, white haired man from Pelican Bay, Florida, walked into a jewelry store at 8 pm this last Friday evening with a beautiful, much younger gal 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 lovely $5,000 ring.

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

At that statement, the jeweler went to his special stock and brought another ring out. "This is an absolutley stunning ring at only $40,000" said the jeweler. The lady's eyes sparkled and her whole body trembled with excitement. The old man, seeing this, said "We'll take it."

The jeweler asked how payment would be made and the man said "I'll give you a check. I realize you need to be sure my check is good, so I'll write it now, and you can call my Bank on Monday to verify funds are sufficient. I'll come to pick up the ring Monday afternoon."

On Monday morning, the jeweler angrily phoned the old fellow and said "There's only $50 in that account!"

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