Golden Throne
There once, a long time ago, were two neighbor tribes in a
remote part of Africa.  The leader of one of the tribes had
an emmense gold throne, made of the purest gold in the world.
The chief of the other tribe wanted very much to have this.
So, one night, he and his best warriors sneaked over to the
other tribe's camp and stole the throne.  Upon returning to
their camp, the warriors asked where to place the throne.  The
leader replied:  ``Put it in my palace.''  That night, there was
a gigantic crash as the chiefs palace crumbled into a pile of
debris and the throne came falling down.

Moral:  Never stow thrones in grass houses.
