A new man is brought into Prison Cell 102.
Already there is a long-time resident who looks 100 years old.
The new man looks at the old-timer inquiringly.
The old-timer says, «Look at me. I’m old and worn out.
You’d never believe that I used to live the life of Riley.
I wintered on the Riviera, had a boat, four fine cars, the most beautiful women, and I ate in all the best restaurants of France.»
The new man asked, «What happened?»
«One day Riley reported his credit cards missing!»
