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
Golf course.
On Golf days, a lot of Golfers 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, 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."
