04/19/10 Grif.Net - Really Bad Pun Week, 1

[Dr. Bob]

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."
