8 N b'day hoax update

We did a real-estate-sign prank on an old friend who's family owned a restaurant for 40 yrs., in a small town in PA. It was at Halloween, though.

The next day he received a call from the real estate office who owned the sign. They wanted to know the name of his friend that "STOLE" their sign. Trouble is, he, being a religious man, told them. He was a graduate of Princeton Univ..

Well, let me tell 'ya, While they were asking about their sign, some other people (tourists) stoppen in to the restaurant and offered him 2 times more that he even thought the place was worth. He said that he would have to think about their "deal".

Well, I almost wound up in prison for robbery.

The local marshalls of the town needed some credit that month. I paid the fine $500.00. Never did recover from the friend's favor. He passed away before deciding on the deal of a life time.

Thanks for listening.

Last year Don painted Mike's barn pink, then when Don was gone for the weekend Mike dismantled a fertilizer spreader and re-assembled it in the middle of Dons living room complete with a half load of old manure.

Don's wife wasn't too pleased.

Happy Birthday!

The following week, he put an add in the same paper, with my address:

I had no idea, until, at 5:45 AM, people started showing up. They came all day long. I guess I had it coming.
