How To Con Your Friends And Influence People.

My brother Frank conned his friend (let's call him Joe) into giving him an undisclosed amount of money and a new set of speakers.
Joe had somehow broken his fathers speakers (which he wasn't supposed to be using) and didn't want him to find out. Luckily for him, Frank knew just what to do.
Frank just so happened to have the same speakers and offered to sell them to Joe for the amount that he had originally paid for them.
Joe was overjoyed at the prospect of not being grounded for life and agreed to the deal. Since the other speakers weren't working anyways,  Joe told Frank that he was welcome to take them as a token of his appreciation.
Frank brought them home and asked The Mad Man if he thought that the speakers could be salvaged.
The Mad Man took a look and said that he would do his best to bring them back to life.
                                     
Wires were striped and the soldering iron was brought out. We waited in anticipation while The Mad Man worked his magic.
After what seemed like an eternity, it was time to test the speakers. Frank plugged his ipod in and pushed the power button. Everybody smiled as music filled the room. 

And that my friends is the story of how my little brother conned his friend and got himself some extra cash and a new speaker system.
