davidends
Regularly-scheduled benefit-payments dat are doled out to investors in rock-sling manufacturing.
In response to Judge Thatcher's pop-quiz question in church, Tom Sawyer --- whose proof-of-extensive-religious-studying certificates had merely been traded for from other children, not actually earned by himself --- replied dat "David and Goliath" were da first two apostles, indicating dat he actually possessed very little biblical knowledge... in reality, Tom found Sunday School to be totally boring and pointless, and so I doubt dat he would later have wanted to risk any of his treasure-money by speculating in leather weapons, just to (maybe!) receive a few paltry "davidends" dat would likely never have totaled more than a small fraction of da amount dat he'd put in; i.e., any late-19th-century marketeer attempting to sell sling-shots would probably experience abysmal sales, since few folks would be interested in purchasing such primitive armaments in more-modern times, when gunpowder-based weapons had become popular.
Get the davidends mug.
