Daily Joke: Policeman Notices an Elderly Lady Dragging Two Large Plastic Garbage Bags
An older woman slowly walked down the street when a policeman observed that one of the sacks she carried was torn.
Bent, the old lady was walking down the street, and because of the heaviness of the big sacks, she could only drag them down the walkway.

One of the bags got ripped, and once in a while, $20 note would fall out onto the sidewalk. A keen-eyed policeman soon noticed and stopped the woman to alert her.
He said, "Ma'am, there are $20 bills falling out of that bag." The old lady said,
"Oh, really? Darn it! I'd better go back and see if I can find them. Thanks for telling me, officer."
The cop questioned,
"Well, now, not so fast. Where did you get all that money? You didn't steal it, did you?"

The older woman answered,
"Oh, no, no. You see, my back yard is right next to a Golf course. A lot of Golfers come and pee through a knothole in my fence, right into my flower Garden. It used to really tick me off. Kills the flowers, you know."
The woman's animated tale continued with the woman explaining that when the men wouldn't stop, she decided to make the best out of it!
She said:
"So now, I stand behind the fence by the knothole, 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, 'OK, buddy! Give me $20, or off it comes.'"

The cop said, laughing:
"Well, that seems only fair. OK. Good luck! Oh, by the way, what's in the other bag?"
She replied,
"You see, officer, not everybody pays."

A MAN RECEIVES FLOWERS ON STARTING HIS NEW BUSINESS
The man's business is opening, and one of the owner's friends wants to send him flowers for the occasion. They arrive at the new business site, and the owner reads the card: "Rest in Peace." The owner gets miffed and calls the florist to complain.
After he tells the florist of the obvious mistake and how angry he is, the florist replies,
"Sir, I'm really sorry for the mistake, but rather than getting angry, you should imagine this. Somewhere there is a funeral taking place today, and they have flowers with a note saying, 'Congratulations on your new location.'"
