Good news and Bad news
« on: September 16, 2015, 04:39:00 AM »
A New York attorney representing a wealthy art collector called and asked to speak to his client, "Saul, I have some good news and, I have some bad news." 

The art collector replied, "I've had an awful day; let's hear the good news first."

The lawyer said, "Well, I met with your wife today, and she informed me that she invested $5,000 in two pictures that she thinks will bring a minimum of $15-20 million.  I think she could be right."

Saul replied enthusiastically, "Well done!  My wife is a brilliant businesswoman!  You've just made my day.  Now I know I can handle the bad news.  What is it?"

The lawyer replied, "The pictures are of you with your secretary."
