An old Italian gentleman man walked up
to an airport ticket counter.
"I want a round trip ticket,"
he said.
"To where?" asked the clerk.
"To here," replied the old
man.
"I mean , where do you want to
go?"
The old man said “to Italy".
"That'll be $600," said the
clerk.
“I only have $599.95. You will take,
no?"
"Look, pal, if I sold all these
tickets for less than they are worth, I'd be in a lot of trouble with my
boss."
So the old man wandered around in the
airport...."'scuse me, please. Can you spare a nickel, Ma’am"
....."Mr... do you have 5 cents?"
Finally one sympathetic guy stopped and
said, "Sure, here's a nickel, what do you need it for?"
"I need five cents to go to
Italy," responded the old man.
"Well", said the guy, "in
that case, here's a quarter. Take the whole family!"
