   It was a hot day in Minnesota .

   Helga hung out the wash to dry, put a roast in the oven, and then went
   downtown to pick up some dry cleaning.

   “Gootness, it’s hotter Dan hell today,” she mused to herself as she
   walked down Main Street . She passed a tavern and thought , “Vy nodt?”

   She walked in and took a seat at the bar.The bartender walked up and
   asked her what she would like to drink.

   “Ya know,” Helga said, “it is zo hot, I tink I’ll have myself a cold
   beer”

   “Anheuser Busch?” the bartender asked.

   Helga blushed and replied, “Vell fine, tanks, und how’s yur viener?”

   An Indian walks into a New York City bank and asks to see the loan
   officer.
   He says he is going to Europe on business for two weeks and
   needs to borrow $5,000.
   The bank officer says the bank will need some
   kind of security for such a loan, so the man hands over the keys of a new
   Rolls Royce parked on the street in front of the bank.
   Everything is checked out,and the bank agrees to accept the car as collateral for
   the loan. An employee drives the Rolls into the bank’s underground garage and
   parks it there. Two weeks later, the man returns, repays the $5,000 and the
   interest, which comes to $15.41.
   The loan officer says, “We are very happy to have had your business,
   and this transaction has worked out very nicely, but we are little puzzled.
   While you were away, we checked you out and found that
   u are a multimillionaire. What puzzles us is why would you bother to borrow $5,000?”

   The Indian replied ,”Where else in New York can I park my car for two
   weeks for 15 bucks?”
