n old man once entered an insurance office and asked to take out a life insurance. “We’re sorry,” he was told, “We don’t give life insurances to anyone over 80 years old”.
“That’s not fair,” the man protested, “you just gave one to my father last week!”
“Your father?” was the incredulous reply, “we must check that out. What was his name?” They investigated the matter and sure enough, it appeared that they had, indeed, given this old man’s father a life insurance.
“Well,” said the administrator, “If we gave your father an insurance policy, it is only fair that we give you one as well. We’ll have to set up a date for you to come by and sign the policy. Is next Tuesday good for you?”
“No”, said the old man, “I can’t come next Tuesday, my grandfather is getting married.”
“Your grandfather?!?”
“Yes. But actually, he doesn’t really want to get married but his parents are putting pressure on him”!
