A motorist driving by a Texas ranch hit and killed a calf that was
crossing the road. The driver went to the owner of the calf and
explained what had happened. He then asked what the animal was worth.
"Oh, about $200 today," said the rancher. "But in six years it would
have been worth $900. So $900 is what I'm out."
The motorist sat down and wrote out a check and handed it to the
farmer.
"Here," he said, "is the check for $900.
It's postdated six years from now...."
'nuff said
