>>   One afternoon a wealthy orchestra leader was riding in his limousine when he saw two
>>men along the roadside eating grass.
>>Disturbed, 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 orchestra leader said.
>>But, sir! I have a wife and two children with me.? They are over there, under that tree"
>>Bring them along," the orchestra leader 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 orchestra leader answered.
>>They all entered the car, which was no easy task, even for a car as large
>>as the limousine was.
>>Once underway, one of the poor fellows turned to the orchestra leader and said,
>>"Sir, you are too kind. Thank you for taking all of us with you."
>>The orchestra leader replied, "Glad to do it. You'll really love my place; the grass
>>is almost a foot high!"
