Ok, so here’s the latest tale of a 20 year old student who thought he could cheat some of the world’s top casinos using a ‘brilliant’ method that he came up with. Simply take a photo of a £25 denomination poker chip found at Gala Casino in the UK, send off the image to a couple of poker manufacturing firms and have them produce a huge quantity so that you can use at the said casino. The guy didn’t figure however, that the firms would be slightly suspicious that they were being asked to produce chips of such a well known casino, and that – as things go – they’d call the cops on him. After the guy’s computer was seized, it was found that he had pictures of all the Gala Casinos across the country – gotcha! The guy was promptly jailed for 18 months….
And to balance out the status quo (‘coz cops can get corny too), here’s a joke courtesy of the Comedy Zone: A policeman is driving along the road when he gets an urgent message on his radio telling him there has been a dead body found in an ice cream van just down the road.
He rushes to the scene where he discovers a man’s body, with chocolate flakes up each nostril, raspberry sauce all over his head and he is covered from head to toe in hundreds and thousands.
A puzzled onlooker asks the policeman what he thinks has happened, to which the policeman replies:
“It looks like he’s topped himself”.
