Money is the vurst thing that could 'ave 'appened to man, akin to speaking vun langvage und building the Tower of Babel. Do you realize vut this money allowed? Before, two men would be unhappily married, admire each other's vife und merely svitch, a vife for a vife. But money changed this. For the first man had offered to sell his vife to another man for the price of two cows. So knowing this, the second man refuses the offer und offers the first man two cows, vich he accepts, thinking to make much more money by the use of them. Und he does, but by the time he returns to the second man, the vife he desires has been killed by his previous vife out of jealousy, so the first man ends up vithout a vife, und only two old cows und useless stones to show for it. 2008-04-21T19:05:49Z http://ficlets.com/feed/story/28199 <p>Very odd, though amusing. It&#8217;s like a morality tale for people a long time ago or something.</p> http://ficlets.com/stories/28199?basename=57849 2008-04-21T19:05:49Z THX 0477 http://ficlets.com/authors/thx_0477
