    Unhappy We all know Scots are Frugal

    One afternoon a Scotsman was riding in his limousine, when he saw two men
    along the roadside eating grass. Distrubed, he ordered his driver to stop, and he
    got out to investigate.

    He asked one man, "Why are you eating grass?" "We don't have any money
    for food," the poor man replied. "We have to eat grass."

    "Well, then, you can come with me to my house and I'll feed you, " the
    Scot said.

    "But sir`, I have a wife and two children with me. They are over there, under
    that tree."

    "Bring them along," the Scotsman replied. Turning to the other poor man he
    stated, "You come with us , also."

    The second man, in a pitiful voice, then said, "But sir, I also have a wife and
    SIX children with me!"

    "Bring them all, as well," the Scot answered.

    They all entered the car, which was no easy task, even for a car as large as
    the limousine was.

    Once under way, one of the poor fellows turned to the Scotsman and said,
    "Sir, you are too kind . . thank you for taking all of us with you."

    The Scotsman replied, "Glad to do it." "You'll really love my place."

    "The grass is almost a FOOT high!"
