| Only Holey Buckett can roll into my office with the notion that a Swiss bank is in play, and even Holey only after lunch, and as to the notion that he and I can pick it up and play with it, well, it just goes to show how salesmanlike Holey can be, but how I wish he saves this for the customers. He plunks these certificates down on my desk, with a design on them featuring cuckoos and gnomes and gothic lettering which makes me figure it is German, then he waits for me to look impressed, this (he says) is the stock of the Union Bank of Switzerland, my friend Martin collects it, and if we help him fill his hand he remembers who his friends are. |
