BIRTHDAY GIFT

Mike Berger, PhD

My wife’s birthday was fast
approaching. I asked her what
she wanted. She replied, “All
I want is a new Mercedes.”

She had been driving that old clunker
for nearly five years. She said it was
time for a change.

Her birthday came and my friends asked
if I had bought her a new Mercedes. “No”,
I replied. “I bought her a huge sapphire ring.”

My friends looked puzzled and asked,
“Why did you make the switch.” I gave
a wry smile and replied, “You can’t buy
a synthetic Mercedes.”
