Keeping Your Money Safe

Dad is from the old school, where you keep your money under the
mattress -- only he kept his in the underwear drawer. One day I
bought my dad an unusual personal safe, a can of spray paint with a
false bottom, so he could keep his money in the workshop. Later I
asked Mom if he was using it.

"Oh, yes," she replied, "he put his money in it the same day."

"No burglar would think to look on the work shelf!" I gloated.

"They won't have to," my mom replied. "He keeps the paint can in his
underwear drawer."

He obviously wants to "keep a lid" on his monies.
