John Holder of Tennessee was ecstatic when he realized that his lottery ticket had hit the jackpot and he was $50,000 richer. After signing the back of the ticket, he made a photocopy and posted it at the gas station where he bought the ticket. But then, on the way home, Holder gave a lift to a stranger in this truck and the ticket was stolen. A distraught Holder thought that the gods couldn’t be THAT cruel by giving him $50K, only to take it away from him. But then, incredibly, the winning scratchcard was mailed to the local lottery office, simply marked ‘lost and found’, with no returning address. Holder was understandably speechless about the thief with a conscience. The winner lost no time in cashing his win and banking the check. Moral of the story? Don’t give strangers rides and always sign your lottery ticket!
“A blonde, a redhead, and a brunette went into a farm to steal chickens. The police were nearby and they heard them and came in. The girls quickly jumped into three potato sacks so they wouldn’t be seen.
One policeman kicked the sack with the redhead, and she said “meow” pretending to be a cat.
He kicked the second one with the brunette, and she said “ruff”, pretending to be a dog.
When he kicked the third sack with the blonde, she said “potatoes.”
