>> Young Chuck in Montana bought a horse from a farmer for $100. The farmer
>> agreed to deliver it the next day. The next day the farmer drove up and
>> said, "Sorry son, but I have some bad news... the horse died."
>>
>> Chuck replied, "Well, then just give me my money back."
>>
>> The farmer said, "Can't do that. I went and spent it already. Chuck said,
>> "Ok, then, just bring me the dead horse."
>>
>> The farmer asked, "What ya gonna do with him?"
>>
>> Chuck said, "I'm going to raffle him off."
>>
>> The farmer said, "You can't raffle off a dead horse!"
>>
>> Chuck said, "Sure I can, watch me. I just won't tell anybody he's dead."
>>
>> A month later, the farmer met up with Chuck and asked, "What happened
>> with that dead horse?"
>>
>> Chuck said, "I raffled him off. I sold 500 tickets at two dollars apiece
>> and made a profit of $998."
>> The farmer said, "Didn't anyone complain?"
>> Chuck said, "Just the guy who won. So I gave him his two dollars back."
>>
>> Chuck grew up and now works for the government. He's the one who figured
>> out how this "bail-out" is going to work.
