A little old lady was walking down the street dragging two plastic
garbage bags,
one in each hand. One of the bags had a hole, and every once in a
while a $20
bill flew out onto the pavement.
A policeman noticed it, stopped her, and said "Ma'am, there are $20
bills
falling out of one of your plastic bags."
"Dang!" said the little old lady. "I'd better go back and see if I
can still
find some of them. Thanks for the warning!"
"Well, now, not so fast" said the cop. "How did you get all that
money? Did
you steal them?"
"Oh no," replied the little old lady. "You see, my backyard goes all
the way up
to the edge of the parking lot of the football stadium. Each time
there's a
game, a lot of fans come and some of them pee in the bushes, and
right into my
flower beds! So everytime there is a game, I go and stand behind
the bushes
with a big hedge clipper, and each time someone sticks his thingie
through the
bushes, I'd say: '$20 or off it comes' . . ."
"Hey, that's pretty good!" laughed the cop. "O.K., Ma'am, and more
luck to
you! But before you go, what's in the other bag?"
"Well" said the little old lady, "not all of them pay up. . ."
Have a great day and don't mess with little old ladies!
