            AN ACTUAL CRAIG'S LIST AD














            AN ACTUAL CRAIG'S LIST PERSONALS AD

            To the Guy Who Tried to Mug Me in Downtown Savannah night before last.

            Date: 2009-05-27, 1 :43 a.m. E.S.T.

            I was the guy wearing the black Burberry jacket that you demanded that I hand over, shortly after you pulled the knife on me and my girlfriend, threatening our lives. You also asked for my girlfriend's purse and earrings. I can only hope that you somehow come across this rather important message.

            First, I'd like to apologize for your embarrassment; I didn't expect you to actually crap in your pants when I drew my pistol after you took my jacket. The evening was not that cold, and I was wearing the jacket for a reason. My girlfriend had just bought me that Kimber Model 1911 ...45 ACP pistol for my birthday, and we had picked up a shoulder holster for it that very evening. Obviously you agree that it is a very intimidating weapon when pointed at your head ... isn't it?!

            I know it probably wasn't fun walking back to wherever you'd come from with that brown sludge in your pants. I'm sure it was even worse walking bare-footed since I made you leave your shoes, cell phone, and wallet with me. [That prevented you from calling or running to your buddies to come help mug us again].

            After I called your mother or "Momma" as you had her listed in your cell, I explained the entire episode of what you'd done. Then I went and filled up my gas tank as well as those of four other people in the gas station, -- on your credit card. The guy with the big motor home took 150 gallons and was extremely grateful!

            I gave your shoes to a homeless guy outside Vinnie Van Go Go's, along with all the cash in your wallet. [That made his day!]

            I then threw your wallet into the big pink "pimp mobile" that was parked at the curb ... after I broke the windshield and side window and keyed the entire driver's side of the car.

            Later, I called a bunch of phone sex numbers from your cell phone. Ma Bell just now shut down the line, although I only used the phone for a little over a day now, so what 's going on with that? Earlier, I managed to get in two threatening phone calls to the DA's office and one to the FBI, while mentioning President Obama as my possible target.

            The FBI guy seemed really intense and we had a nice long chat (I guess while he traced your number etc.).

            ;In a way, perhaps I should apologize for not killing you ... but I feel this type of retribution is a far more appropriate punishment for your threatened crime. I wish you well as you try to sort through some of these rather immediate pressing issues, and can only hope that you have the opportunity to reflect upon, and perhaps reconsider, the career path you've chosen to pursue in life. Remember, next time you might not be so lucky. Have a good day!

            Thoughtfully yours,

            Alex

            P.S. Remember this motto ... An armed society makes for a more civil society!

              Semper Fi

              I did not check it out,

              Associated Press

              AUGUSTA, Ga. - A U.S. Marine reservist collecting toys for children was stabbed when he helped stop a suspected shoplifter in eastern Georgia.

              Best Buy sales manager Orvin Smith told The Augusta Chronicle that man was seen on surveillance cameras Friday putting a laptop under his jacket at the Augusta store.

              When confronted, the man became irate, knocked down an employee, pulled a knife and ran toward the door. Outside were four Marines collecting toys for the service branch's "Toys For Tots" program.

              Smith said the Marines stopped the man, but he stabbed one of them, Cpl. Phillip Duggan, in the back. The cut did not appear to be severe.

              The suspect was transported to the local hospital with broken arms, a broken leg, possible broken ribs, multiple contusions and assorted lacerations including a broken nose and jaw...injuries he sustained when he fell trying to run, after stabbing the Marine.

              is this known as swift justice? LOL

                  Billie I have found in my life that when you treat people badly , that will result in some misfortune in your life, BUT if are nice to people that too will come back to you in many happy ways.

                      "We Wuz Robbed"

                      A gas station owner in Chimney Rock, N. Carolina was trying to increase his sales.
                      So he put up a sign that read,
                      "Free Sex with Fill-Up."
                      Soon a local redneck pulled in, filled his tank and asked for his free sex.
                      The owner told him to pick a number from 1 to 10.
                      If he guessed correctly he would get his free sex.
                      The redneck guessed 8, and the proprietor said,
                      "You were close. The number was 7. Sorry. No sex this time."

                      A week later, the same redneck, along with his brother, Bubba, pulled in for another fill-up. Again he asked for
                      his free sex.
                      The proprietor again gave him the same story, and asked him to guess the correct number.
                      The redneck guessed 2 this time.
                      The proprietor said, "Sorry, it was 3. You were close, but no free sex this time."
                      As they were driving away, the redneck said to his brother, "I think that game is rigged, and he doesn't really give away free sex."
                      Bubba replied, "No it ain't, Billy Ray. It ain't rigged. My wife won twice last week."

                          No. It is called the Lamech syndrome:
                          Rumor: A shoplifter who stabbed a Marine collecting Toys for Tots was then whomped by other Marines.


                          Marines know better than to use excessive force in situations like these. At least these marines did.

                              "ALWAYS" Check The BARN!

                              Always check the barn



                              A New York man retired. He wanted to use his retirement money wisely, so it would last, and decided to buy a home and a few acres in Portugal . The modest farmhouse had been vacant for 15 years; the owner and wife both had died, and there were no heirs. The house was sold to pay taxes. There had been several lookers, but the large barn had steel doors, and they had been welded shut.



                              Nobody wanted to go to the extra expense to see what was in the barn, and it wasn't complimentary to the property anyway......so, nobody made an offer on the place.

                              The New York guy bought it at just over half of the property's worth, moved in, and set out to tear into the barn.......curiosity was killing him.

                              So, he and his wife bought a generator, and a couple of grinders.......and cut thru the welds.

                              What was in the barn...............?

                              The doors were welded shut, but an angle grinder took care of that.

                                I either saw the barn and contents on youtube, television, or in a magazine, can't remember which. Some of the cars were wild looking like nothing you'd ever see unless in a museum.
