Last Minute Cancellations?

[reggaepass@aol.com]

Hey, not bad! The one time someone told me that they didn't have the 
money (after I had completed the work), I grabbed the largest of the 
bowling trophies adorning his mantle. Before I got out the door, his 
financial situation suddenly changed--he found the cash required to 
ransom his prized possession!

  YES...He offered me a .303 vintage rifle and a violin instead of 
payment!! I went away quite satisfied!
