I CONNED A DEAD MAN -- by Steve Nadis
Last night I sold a condo (at a price well above its market value) to a dead man. Or I should say to a man who is now dead. He wasn't when I sold it to him. Or at least I didn't think so. But upon reflection, I realized that he really was dead, and the fact that I had soaked him troubled me quite a bit when I considered the plight of his widowed wife and two young children. But I then figured out that I’d just been dreaming and that I actually don’t have any condo to sell, so I shouldn’t feel bad about conning this guy, dead or alive. So once I put all that together and concluded that none of the above happened, why did I proceed with the foregoing? Simply because I liked the title: “I Conned A Dead Man.”
