An angel appears at a faculty meeting and tells
the dean that in return for his unselfish and
exemplary behavior, the Lord will reward him with
his choice of infinite wealth, infinite wisdom,
or infinite beauty.

Without hesitating, the dean selects infinite wisdom.

“Done!” says the angel, and disappears in a cloud
of smoke and a bolt of lightning.

Now, all heads turn toward the dean, who sits
surrounded by a faint halo of light. At length,
one of his colleagues whispers,

“Say something.”

The dean sighs and says, “I should have taken the money.”
