~ Ole & Lena ~
Ole was on his deathbed, with his family around him as well as his nurse. He says, “To my oldest son Swen, I vant yew to take da houses on da lake. My dear daughter Elsa, yew take da apartments downtown. My youngest son Einar, yew can half da office buildings on da edge uf town. And my dear wife, Lena, yew can half all da other properties.”
The nurse was just blown away by all this wealth and, as Ole slipped away, she said, “Mrs. Olson, your husband must have been incredibly successful to have accumulated all this property.”
“Property!” says Lena. “No, no. All he had to gif us vas his paper route!"
