So on Friday morning I receive a call from a Mrs. Williamson (who sounds well into her 2nd century) and she has been passed one of my stolen checks. A guy who she describes as a hillbilly, had done some yard work for her last summer, stopped by and asked for more work. She said she hadn't any but he pestered her until she found a job for him. He then came by the next day and told her that he had overcharged her and would like to write her a check for the difference and would he mind if he added on $10-$20 for cash because he wasn't able to make it to the bank that day.
Needless to say she did and when she went to the bank she was told it was bad. She found our number and called me letting me know she had one of my stolen checks. The very low functioning criminal also gave her a name and number in case she had any more odd jobs to be done. Well I am now hot on his trail and Officer Dickey is bringing him in for questioning this week as well as being able to get surveillance video from another bank in which he tried to use a check. That's right baby, mess with this heffer and you get the udders!
Now for the silver lining to my story this week, oh yes, you've heard the rumors...they're back!

You go girl! Good for you. Hopefully, you can get your camera back. Maybe they will make him pay for all the locks you had to change!
You should send this story to Jay Leno for his "stupid Criminals" segment. Priceless. Another fine example of our tax dollars at work in your local school systems.
