    A Good Scottish Laugh.

    I don't know if any of you have seen this one but I just saw it in a back issue of the Clan MacLeod USA Newsletter and I got a good laugh out of it.

    A Good Scottish Laugh
    Anonymous submission!
    An Arab Sheik was admitted to the hospital for heart
    surgery, but prior to the surgery the doctors needed to store
    his type of blood in case the need for a transfusion arose. As
    the gentleman had a rare type of blood, it couldn't be found
    locally, so a broad call went out. Eventually a Scotsman was
    located who had a similar blood type. The Scot willingly
    donated his blood for the Sheik.
    After the surgery, the Sheik sent the Scotsman a new
    BMW, diamonds, and $50,000 in appreciation for giving his
    blood.
    A few days later, the Sheik needed a second corrective
    surgery. The hospital telephoned the Scotsman who was
    more than happy to donate his blood again.
    After the second surgery, the Sheik sent the Scotsman a
    thank-you card and a box of Laura Secord chocolates. The
    Scotsman was surprised that he did not acknowledge the
    blood donation as generously as before. He phoned the
    Sheik and asked him, "I thought you would be generous
    again, that you would give me another car or diamonds or
    money... but all you gave me was a thank-you card and a box
    of chocolates. Why?"
    To this the Sheik replied, "Aye laddie, ya see I now
    have Scottish blood in ma veins!"
