An Arab Sheik was admitted to St Vincent
's Hospital for heart surgery, but prior to the surgery, the doctors
needed to store his blood in case the need arises. As the gentleman had
a rare type of blood, it couldn't be found locally, so the call went
out to all the states.
Finally a Scot was located who
had a similar blood type. The Scot willingly donated his blood for the
Arab.
After the surgery, the Arab sent the Scotsman as
appreciation for giving his blood, a new BMW, diamonds & US dollars.
A couple of days later, once again, the Arab had to go
through a corrective surgery.
His doctor telephoned the
Scotsman who was more than happy to donate his blood again.
After the second surgery, the Arab sent the Scotsman a
thank-you card & a jar of candies.
The Scotsman was
shocked that the Arab this time did not reciprocate his kind gesture as
he had anticipated.
He phoned the Arab & asked him: "I
thought you would be generous again, that you would give me a BMW,
diamonds & money... but you only gave me a thank-you card & a jar of
candies".
To this the Arab replied:
"Aye, but I now have Scottish blood in ma veins" :killingme:
