A city boy, Kenny moved to the country and bought a donkey from an old farmer for $100. The farmer agreed to deliver the donkey the next day. The next day the farmer drove up and said: "Sorry son, but I have some bad news, the donkey died." Kenny replied: "Well then, just give me my money back." The farmer said: "Can't do that, I went and spent it already." Kenny said: "OK then, at least give me the donkey." The farmer asked: "What ye gonna do with him." Kenny: "I'm going to raffle him off." Farmer: "You can't raffle off a dead donkey." Kenny: "Sure I can. Watch me. I just won't tell anybody he is dead." A month later the farmer met up with Kenny and asked: "What happened with that dead donkey?" Kenny: "I raffled him off. I sold 500 tickets at two dollars a piece and made a profit of $900." Farmer: "Didn't anyone complain?" Kenny: "Just the guy who won. So I gave him his two dollars back." Kenny grew up and eventually became the chairman of Enron. Not quite in line with this thread and I guess it should be in the jokes section but just the mere mention of Enron and I couldn't help myself. Hope it lightened things up a bit.
