At the end of the tax year, Revenue Canada office sent an inspector to
& U F2 }; h3 W' Y# D! ` audit the books of a local hospital. While the auditor was checking the D2 K6 d4 k7 ^! t. I
books he turned to the CFO of the hospital and said, "I notice you buy a$ x2 P. ^6 C2 n. L; B
lot of bandages. What do you do with the end of the roll when there's too 9 G9 \4 K6 H! ^( @" O' w. v

"Oh," replied the auditor, somewhat disappointed that his unusual - a% ^0 t; m" G! I( u3 S
