Title: The scotsman and the arab
Post by: cdrover(Clyde) on January 30, 2013, 06:06:08 pm

Ya gotta love this one..
 
An Arab Sheik was admitted to hospital for heart surgery, but prior to the
 surgery, the doctors needed to store his type of blood in case the need
 arose.
 
As the gentleman had a rare type of blood, it couldn't be found locally, so,
 the call went out.
 
Finally a Scotsman by the name of Rob was located who had a similar blood type. The Scot
 willingly donated his blood for the Arab.
 
After the surgery, the Arab sent the Scotsman in appreciation for giving his
 blood, a new BMW, diamonds and $50,000 dollars.
 
A couple of days later, once again, the Arab had to go through a corrective
 surgery.
 
The hospital telephoned the Scotsman who was more than happy to donate his
 blood again.
 
After the second surgery, the Arab sent the Scotsman a thank-you card and a
 box of Laura Secord chocolates.
 
The Scotsman was shocked that the Arab did not reciprocate his kind gesture
 as he had anticipated.
 
He phoned the Arab and asked him: "I thought you would be generous again,
 that you would give me another BMW, diamonds and money ... but you only gave
 me a thank-you card and a box of chocolates."

 To this the Arab replied: "Aye laddie, but I now have Scottish blood in ma
 veins".

Well, lady and gentlemen I was not sleeping, a friend of mine gave me a new blade for the table saw and I was busy trying it out. It works perfectly.
Since we are in an age of recycling and energy saving, I used the Arab's thank you card to give to my friend. (Just changed the name), and I'm keeping the box of chocolates to give to she who must be obeyed for Valentine's day. So you see I have saved an Arab and saved the Planet but most importantly of all I SAVED MONEY!!!!!!  ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D
