A little old lady was walking down the street
dragging two large plastic garbage bags behind her. One of the bags was
ripped and every once in a while a $20 fell out onto the
sidewalk.
Noticing this, a policeman stopped her, and
said, "Ma'am, there are $20 bills falling out of that bag."
"Oh really? Darn it!" said the little old lady. "I'd better go
back and see if I can find them. Thanks for telling me
officer."
Well, now, not so fast," said the cop. Where
did you get all that money? You didn't steal it, did you?"
"Oh, no, no", said the old lady. "You see, my back yard is
right next to the football stadium parking lot. On game days, a lot
of fans come and pee through a knot hole in the fence, right into my
flower garden. It used to really tick me off. Kills the flowers, you know.
Then I thought, 'why not make the best of it?
So, now,
on game days, I stand behind the fence by the knot hole, real quiet,
with my hedge clippers. Every time some guy sticks his thing through my
fence, I surprise him, grab hold of it and say, 'O.K., buddy! Give me $20,
or off it comes.'
"Well, that seems only fair," said
the cop, laughing. "OK. Good luck! Oh, by the way, what's in the other
bag?"
"Well, you know", said the little old lady, "not
everybody pays."
