TAKING UP A
COLLECTION
A man on his way home from work at the
Pentagon came to a dead halt in traffic and thought to himself, "Wow, this traffic
seems worse than usual. Nothing's even moving."
He notices a police officer walking back
and forth between the lines of cars so he rolls down his window and asks, "Excuse me
officer, what's the hold up?"
The officer replies, "The President
just found out he was impeached and he's all depressed. He stopped his motorcade in the
middle of the Beltway and he's threatening to douse himself in gasoline and set himself on
fire. He says his family hates him and he doesn't have the $33.5 million he owes his
lawyers. I'm walking around taking up a collection for him."
"Oh really? How much have you
collected so far?"
"I've got a lot of folks still
siphoning; but right now I have about three hundred gallons."
