Cheating by marking cards in Connecticut, so he can win enough money to pay bail in Louisiana, where he is charged with the exact same thing. Lol.

It used to be women's face powder and infra red lenses. Oldest trick ever. Operating rooms have black and white rather than color monitors so surgeons can see fine detail.

I like how they throw the unemployment rate into the article:
"In other words, someone in Atlantic City found a bag containing $21,000 and apparently decided to keep it. An investigation into the case is ongoing.

Atlantic City’s unemployment rate reportedly is 18 percent."

Speaking of "armored truck people:" one day while walking toward the courthouse steps I happened to be behind a uniformed fellow who was entering the courthouse, having just left his armored truck.

I noted a big keyring full of keys somehow "fell off of him" and landed on the ground, in front of me.

He had no clue he'd just lost the keys.

At that moment I had reached the proverbial fork in the road.
"What, me worry?"

or selling re-used water bottles.

I do wonder how much those people who dress up on the street make. I gave Jack Sparrow $5 last time for a few pics.

I was clicking thru the thread. I hadn't really had enough caffeine yet and was trying to do a play on words between reel and "real". It sorta bombed but it worked well in my head. Gotta throw a lot of noodles at the ceiling sometimes to get one to stick.

If he's the same one I have seen out there, he is a DEAD RINGER for Johnny Depp / Capt Jack Sparrow.

it must be, because the reason I did it was a good friend is obsessed with him. I sent her the picture and she thought it was him. Then she was confused as to why he was dressed up then she realized it wasn't him. Then she thought I was at a maddam tussauds. She has never been to Vegas so when I explained that there were people on the street that do this she was even more confused.

My daughter tests the spaghetti noodles but throwing one against the wall. If it sticks, time to drain and add sauce.
Shed not for her the bitter tear Nor give the heart to vain regret Tis but the casket that lies here, The gem that filled it Sparkles yet
