I have a friend that has had a tough couple of years. A divorce a few years ago has left him nearly broke and he just found out that he has throat and lung cancer. He is in pretty bad shape right now.
Anyway, I was wanting to come up with some kind of gag I could pull on him to see if it would get his mind off of his problems. There is this really prestigious club downtown that he used to be a member of but can now no longer afford it. I was thinking of getting some of their letterhead and writing him that he has been reinstated with a life membership. Tell him there will be a banquet in his honor because of his hardships. Then arrange a time and all and have him show up there with a tux on and......... Nothing. Everyone just staring at him wondering why he came.
Would that be $$$$ or what?
