~¤~ Cigars! ~¤~
"So the guy bough a case of expensive cigars and had them insured against fire for $15,000. Next thing you know, the insurance company gets a claim, saying all the cigars were lost in a series of small fires..."
-"..He smoked them?"
"Yeah. But the judge ruled that the company guaranteed the cigars as insurable against fire, without defining acceptable fire.
"So the insurance company paid out the money, and then had him arrested for twenty-four counts of arson."
-"The judge threw out the case, right?"
"The judge sentanced him to twenty-four consecutive one year terms."
