There was a lady who saw a man begging on the street with a hat in front of him that said, “Blind: Please help!” So, she put a dollar in the hat. But the wind was blowing so quickly that the dollar blew away. The man stood up and chased after the dollar, and put it in his pocket. And the lady said, “It’s written here, ‘Blind man: Please help!’ But you are not blind!” He said, “Yes, that’s not me. I am not the beggar. It’s my brother.” So she said, “Then what are you doing here?” He said, “Well, I am just sitting in for him for a while.” The lady asked, “And where is your brother now?” He replied, “Oh, he went to see a movie.”
