unit4 Good As New When Tim Longs father died, Tim inherited a great deal of money. For a long time, he did not know what to spend it on, then one day he saw an advertisement for brains. The advertisement said, Get a better brain and lead a more successful life. The advertisement had been put in the newspaper by a doctor. Tim went to see him. Please explain your advertisement to me, he said. Very well, the doctor answered. Have you heard of heart transplants? Yes, Tim said. A heart transplant is when you take a heart from one person and put it into the body of another. That is correct, the doctor said. Well, I do brain transplants. Now ... he pointed to a price list, ... we have several brains in stock. You can have a sanitation workers brain for $5,000. Tim shook his head. What about a university professors brain? You can have one of those for $20,000, the doctor said. This was interesting, Tim thought, but he wanted more information. Is that the most expensive brain? he asked. No. You can have a judges brain for $50,000, the doctor told him. That sounds very interesting, Tim said. And is that the most expensive brain? The doctor shook his head. Oh no, he said. The most expensive brain is a politicians. That will cost you $100,000. Tim was surprised. Why is a politicians brain so expensive? he asked. Because its never been used, the doctor said.
