The Wedding Gift

David and Shira Stern had a wedding to go to and needed a wedding gift. “Do we really have to shell out more cash for another wedding I don’t want to go to?” David asked.

Aha! He thought. “We still have that monogrammed silver tray from our wedding that we never use. I'll just take it to a silversmith and have him remove our monogram and put the names of the new couple. Voila, one cheap wedding present!"

David took it to the silversmith and asked him to remove her monogram and put the new one on. The silversmith examined the tray carefully, shook his head and said, "Buddy, this can only be done so many times!"
