Didn't know if I should start a new thread or post this in the jokes section!!!

FORT WORTH, Texas - Charles Ray Fuller must have been planning one big record company. The 21-year-old North Texas man was arrested last week for trying to cash a $360 billion check, saying he wanted to start a record business. Tellers at the Fort Worth bank were immediately suspicious — perhaps the 10 zeros on a personal check tipped them off.

Fuller, of suburban Crowley, was arrested on a forgery charge. He was released after posting $3,750 bail.

Fuller said his girlfriend's mother gave him the check to start a record business. But bank employees who contacted the account's owner said the woman told them she did not give him permission to take or cash the check.

In addition to the forgery count, Fuller was charged with unlawfully carrying a weapon and possessing marijuana. Officers reported finding less than two ounces of marijuana and a .25-caliber handgun and magazine in his pockets.

Doesn't everyone have at least 500 billion in their checking accounts?

It's unbelievable how stupid some people can be.

They do everything bigger in Texas. He must have won one of those lotteries that Warren keeps getting e-mails about.

In some ways, I really am not surprised. I have met some around here that are dumber than a box of hammers. Our local police SGT told us a story that had me laughing. He pulled a guy over one night because his headlight was out. He was bored and was going to let the go with a warning to get it fixed. He walked up and asked, "Do you know why I pulled you over?" The guy responded, "Yea, because I have a trunk full of Coke." Sure enough, he had a bunch of Cocaine in the trunk.
