        I had an interesting thing happen to me while in a shop.  I
        had picked up a tin, paid for it, and began eating.  It turned
        out to be salmon; my hands got slippery, and I dropped the
        empty tin.  The shopkeeper paid me for it.  I tried to pick it
        up, but it slipped out of my hands again.  The shopkeeper paid
        me for it again.  This cycle continued until my hands were no
        longer slippery.  I made so much money that I was able to legally
        clean out the shop!
