[Rhodes22-list] Joke -- Smart Blonde

[john Belanger]

possibly the only unrealistic aspect of the story is the low interest rate.
  did someone say something about the exception proving the rule. ;-)

  A blonde walks into a bank in New York City and asks for the 
loan officer. She says she's going to Europe on business for two weeks 
and needs to borrow $5,000. The bank officer says the bank will need 
some kind of security for the loan, so the blonde hands over the keys to 
a new Rolls Royce. The car is parked on the street in front of the bank, 
she has the title and everything checks out. The bank agrees to accept 
the car as collateral for the loan. The bank's president and its 
officers all enjoy a good laugh at the blonde for using a $250,000 Rolls 
as collateral against a $5,000 loan. An employee of the bank then 
proceeds to drive the Rolls into the bank's under ground garage and 
parks it there.

Two weeks later, the blonde returns, repays the $5,000 and the interest, 
which comes to $15.41. The loan officer says, "Miss, we are very happy 
to have had your business, and this transaction has worked out very 
nicely, but we are a little puzzled. While you were away, we found that 
you are a multimillionaire. What puzzles us is why would you bother to 
borrow $5,000?"

The blonde replies....""Where else in New York City can I park my car 
for two weeks for only $15.41 and expect it to be there when I return?"
