A penny-pincher was old Mac, as frugal as could be. To save a cent he'd walk a mile, complete absurdity. There came a day when he was ill, in fact, approaching death. His loved ones filled his bedroom up, awaiting his last breath. He squinted through his cataracts and asked, 'Is my wife here? ' She gently squeezed him on the arm and said, 'I'm with you, dear!
