The people from Genova are said to be misers. The wife of Signor Tirchio from Genova passed away. The day after he went to the local news-agency in order to have an announcement made telling the employee he didn’t want to spend too much money.
So his order for the announcement was “MARTHA DIED”. The employee looked at him rather puzzled as something like that had never ever happened to him in more than 30 years of activity in that field. So he suggested to be somewhat more explicit and indicated that the price for the announcement would not change if it did not exceed 7 words. So the man from Genova leant back, reflected for a moment and then gave his new order for the announcement: MARTHA DIED, RED FIAT PANDA FOR SALE .
