Three middle aged men, a Texas Alum and an two Auburn Alums were sitting on the beach one day discussing how they had come into early retirement.
The First Auburn Alum Told his story.
I had a very succesful consulting firm, when one day, it caught fire and burned to the ground. I could have rebuilt, but I decided to take the insurance money and retire early.
The second Auburn Alum said "Wow. I had almost the same thing happen to me. I owned a factory, when one day, there was a big explosion which leveled the entire building. I too, could have rebuilt, but I decided to take the insurance money and retire early."
Finally, the Texas Alum Spoke. "That is incredible. I also have a similar story. I had a restaurant, and was making money hand over fist. Well you remeber that big flood last year? Wiped out my restaurant as well as most of the neighborhood. I could have rebuilt, but I decided to take the insurance money and retire, just like the two of you."
The two Auburn alums congratulated the Texan on how things had worked out for the best for him.
"But we have to know," said one of them.
"How do you start a flood?"
