This morning in the Wall Street Journal.
In today's episode of storage soap.......
(DDUP) "But papa, I don't want to marry that man, he's a brute!"
(stockholers) "He's got a big dowry - a cow and 20 goats"
(DDUP) "Yes papa, but the alternative isn't bad, he'll give you the 20 goats and because he's a beekeeper - we'll bring you sweet honey for the rest of your life! "
(stockholders) "You think I should take the promise of honey instead of a cow??!! Oy vey! I could do a lot with a cow."
(DDUP) "But if I go with him, you'll never see me again! It will be the death of me! Besides, what if old moneybags changes his mind? Nobody will want me - I could be a widow the rest of my life?"
(stockholders) "Don't worry my dear, there's always someone else. Besides, its not you rejecting your beekeeper man, its me, He'll still want you if he really loves you. But you know what they always say, a cow is a cow! Still, I hear the desperation in your voice and it breaks my heart. I need to think about this......"
