                  Three Whistles 
 
 
 
 I promised my girlfriend a gold necklace for her birthday, but when the jeweler quoted a price for one we liked, I let out a long, low whistle.  
 
 
 "And how much are they then?" I asked, pointing to another tray. "You, sir," replied the jeweler, "about three whistles."
