Classic British Flight Sim

A father told his three sons when he sent them to the university: "I feel it's my duty to provide you with the best possible education, and you do not owe me anything for that. However, I want you to appreciate it; as a token, please each put $1,000 into my coffin when I die."

And so it happened.
The sons became a doctor, a lawyer, and a financial planner, each very successful financially.
When they saw their father in the coffin one day, they remembered his wish.

First it was the doctor who put ten $100 bills onto the chest of the deceased.


Then came the financial planner, who put a $1,000 bill there, too.


Finally, it was the heartbroken lawyer's turn. He dipped into his pocket, took out his chequebook, wrote a check for $3,000.


He put it into his father's coffin, and took the $2,000 cash EricT

Thanks Eric!

It figures a lawyer would do that!

Not many people know this, but cold-drawn copper wire, used by electricians the world over, was actually invented by two Scottish lawyers disputing ownership of a bawbee.
Younger viewers may need to know that a bawbee was known in less civilised countries as a ha'penny or halfpenny.
