A couple of would-be robbers decided to rob a bank., Once inside, the robbers, who expected to find one or two large safes filled with cash and valuables, were surprised to see hundreds of smaller safes scattered throughout the bank. The robbers cracked the first safe’s combination, and inside they found only a bowl of vanilla pudding.

As recorded on the bank’s audio tape system, one robber said, “At least we’ll have a bit to eat.” The robbers opened up a second safe, and it also contained nothing but vanilla pudding. The process continued until all the safes were opened.

They found not one pound sterling, a diamond, or an ounce of gold. Instead, all the safes contained covered bowls of pudding.

Disappointed, the robbers made a quiet exit, each leaving with nothing more than a queasy, uncomfortably full stomach.

The newspaper headline read:

“IRELAND’S LARGEST SPERM BANK ROBBED EARLY THIS MORNING.”

 

In Los Angeles, there was a notorious gang involved in all sorts...drugs, prostitution, protection...you name it. This gang had an initiation ceremony, whereby the prospective gang member had to cruise the city streets after midnight with no headlamps on...he/she then had to follow and shoot the first driver to flash their lights at them....this became known as 'Death Car'....such was the fear that residents stopped flashing their headlamps during the evenings...

 

I thought this thread would be stuff like...

How on Earth am I ever going to be able to trust you again?

You've not only let me down, you've let yourself down and you've let TLB down.

Rover developed a jet engine to power a road car. They couldn't get it quiet enough to run on normal roads so the project was shelved. The jet engine they developed though is fitted in the Hercules aircraft and provides power and air to start the main engines. It's called the Rover APU or Auxiliary Power Unit.

 

I'm still going to check though because I want it to be true.

 

it's true in my cars!

 

Conkers placed strategically around a room stop spiders.
