Stupid Burgler

[Tyger]

A man walked into the downtown Bank of America and on the back of

a deposit slip wrote, "this iz a stikkup. Put all your muny in this bag."

While standing in line, waiting to give his note to the teller, the man

began to worry that someone may have seen him write the note and

might call the police before he could reach the teller.

So, the criminal left the Bank of America and walked across to the

street to Wells Fargo. After waiting in line for several minutes there,

he handed his note to a teller. After reading it, the teller determined

that this robber was perhaps a few sandwiches short of a picnic.

She told him that because his note was written on a Bank of America

deposit slip, she could not honor his demand. He would either have to

fill out a Wells Fargo withdrawal slip or go back to the Bank of America. Feeling defeated, the man said he understood and left. The Wells Fargo

teller promptly called the police, who arrested the man a few minutes

later--still waiting in line at the Bank of America
