Hey Sipho! I have a cow for you for just 500 Rand!'
'E yoh, Bongani! I'll take it - you can bring it to me tomorrow!'
The next day:
'Sorry Sipho, but the cow died last night.'
'Hauw.. So, ok then. Just give me my money back.'
'Sorry Sipho, I did already spend that money..'
'Eish! So, ok then. Just bring me the dead cow.' So, Bongani brought
the dead cow to Sipho the next morning.
A few weeks later, Bongani bumped into Sipho and asked him what he did
with the dead cow:
'You won't believe, Bongani! I made a raffle for the cow, and I sold
251 tickets for R 5 each! I made a profit of R 850! But, I didn't tell
anyone the cow was dead..'
'Yoh! And the people didn't complain?'
'Eish! Only the guy which won! So, I gave him back his R 5 and he was happy!'

Sipho is now in parliament..
