King Ozymandias of Assyria was running low on cash after years of war with
the Hittites.

His last great possession was the Star of the Euphrates , the most valuable
diamond in the ancient world. Desperate, he went to Croesus, the
pawnbroker, to ask for a loan.

Croesus said, "I'll give you 100,000 dinars for it."

"But I paid a million dinars for it," the King protested. "Don't you know
who I am?? I am the king!"

Croesus replied, "When you wish to pawn a Star, makes no difference who you
are."

haha - good one Dally

And God says to Moses on the mountain " gidday mate" (down under story)
"How's it going there God"
"Hey, I got some commandments for you Moses"
" Oh yeah? how much are they?" (Moses being a jew)
"They're free mate"
"Oh well, count me in, I'll take ten!!"

Hi Varmit,

As somebody once said to me, "If you were twice as funny, you'd be
witty, mate!". Smile))
