As a restaurant owner, I hired a pianist and a harpist to entertain my customers. After several performances, I discovered that the pianist had walked away with some of my valuables. I notified police, who arrested her. Desperate for another pianist, I called a friend who knew some musicians. "What happened to the pianist you had?" he asked me. "I had her arrested," I replied. We said good-bye and hung up. A few minutes later my friend called back and asked, "How badly did she play?" |
