Score one for the Hittites
============================
Maurice Boardman writes ....
A Hittite walks into a bank in New York City and asks for the
loan officer. She says she is going to Europe on business for
two weeks and needs to borrow $5,000. The bank officer says
the bank will need some kind of security for such a loan, so
the Hittite hands over the keys to a new Rolls Royce parked
on the street in front of the bank.

Everything checks out, and the bank agrees to accept the car
as collateral for the loan. An employee drives the Rolls into
the bank's underground garage and parks it there. Two weeks
later, the Hittite returns, repays the $5,000 and the interest,
which comes to $15.41.

The loan officer says, "We are very happy to have had your
business, and this transaction has worked out very nicely, but
we are a little puzzled. While you were away, we checked you
out and found that you are a multimillionaire. What puzzles us
is why would you bother to borrow $5,000?"

The Hittite replies, "Where else in New York can I park my car
for two weeks for 15 bucks?"
				Score one for the Hittites!!
