Dumb Crooks

I heard on the news a lady tried to pass a million dollar bill at Walmart,how ignorant can one be ?
A couple of years ago a man and his wife were robbing some banks in my area and a few weeks went by and things settled down and this dummy called 911 from a motel room and asked if there was a warrant out for himself. He was trying to be incognito and about 5 or 10 minutes the cops had the handcuffs on him. /forums/images/graemlins/crazy.gif

My credit manager is also a police officer and he comes in with the funniest stories about how stupid people are.

But it is also amazing some of the stuff people do. Apparently it is common to rent a car from a major rental operation, swap out the battery, alternator, water pump, even a set of tires with the clunker in the driveway and then return the rental with junk parts.

Other stories about how little kids get neglected by their drug abusing parents range from sad to sick.

But the idiocy of some people is simply amazing.

She was told by the clerk that they didn't accept MasterCard any longer, so all she had in her purse was the 1,000,000 bill. /forums/images/graemlins/grin.gif

The report said that she was trying to buy about $1600 worth of stuff. Yeah, I'm sure the cashier had $998,400 in her drawer to give her change.

This lady is definitely IQ-impaired (to be politically correct)

Uh ... fellas, this was clearly not a matter of stupidity. Obviously this woman's elevator doesn't quite reach the top.

A different issue altogether. The only real stupid part is the part where they put her in jail instead of a hospital.

Gatorboy . . . could that bill have been binary?

I actually found out recently that there *is* such a thing as a million dollar bill. My daughter was researching the Statue of Liberty, and one of the facts she found was that Lady Liberty is on the $1,000,000 bill. Not that I've ever seen one outside of WalMart - they made a mistake and gave me one for change one time /forums/images/graemlins/grin.gif...

The Statue of Liberty is on the million dollar bill, however the bill has no value. Note the wording in the attached picture.

This is the largest bill, the 10,000 bill which is no longer in circulation.

LOL my exact same thoughts.

The largest bill is the $100,000 bill,with Woodrow Wilsons picture on it,it was never in circulation,it was only used by the feds(in certain areas).After 1969 the feds quit putting into circulation anything above a $100 bill.
Did you kow the names 50 states are actually printed on the back of a $5.00 bill ?
