The Grumpmeyer Diamond
The statuesque blonde walked into a dinner party on the arm of a scowling tycoon. She took her seat at the dinner table while her escort conversed with other guests. A woman sitting nearby couldn’t help staring at the huge gem hanging from her neck.
“Excuse me,” the woman said, “but I must tell you… that is the most gorgeous diamond I’ve ever seen.”
“Why, thank you. It’s the Grumpmeyer Diamond.”
“I’m surprised I’ve never heard of it”, the woman said. “I’m quite familiar with most famous gems.”
“Well,” replied the blonde, “the Grumpmeyer Diamond has a horrible curse attached to it.”
“Really?” said the woman with great interest. “What is it?”
The blonde grimaced and gestured toward her escort. “Grumpmeyer over there.”
