An elderly couple was =
celebrating their sixtieth anniversary. The couple had married as =
childhood sweethearts and had moved back to their old neighborhood after =
they retired. Holding hands, they walked back to their old school and =
found the tree on the playground where he had carved ‘Jerry + =
Sally’ so many decades before.
On their way back home, a =
bag of money fell out of an armored car, practically landing at their =
feet. Sally quickly picked it up and, not sure what to do with it, they =
took it home. There, she counted the money – more than fifty =
thousand dollars!
Immediately, Jerry said, =
“We’ve got to give it back.”
Sally replied, =
“Finders keepers.” She put the money back in the bag and hid =
it in their attic.
The next day, two police =
officers were canvassing the neighborhood looking for the money, and =
knocked on their door. “Pardon me, did either of you find a bag =
that fell out of an armored car yesterday?”
Sally said, =
“No.”
Jerry added, “She=B9s =
lying, officers. She hid it up in the attic.”
Sally smiled, “Don’t =
believe him, he=B9s getting senile.”
The detectives turned to =
Jerry and began to question him. One asked, =
“Tell us the story from the beginning.”
So Jerry began, =
“Well, when Sally and I were walking home from school yesterday . =
. . “
The first police officer =
turned to his partner and said, “We’re outta =
here.”
