My brother sent me this email, and I just had to share it with AR15.com crew.
Top 8 Morons of 2002
> 1. WILL THE REAL DUMMY PLEASE STAND UP? AT&T fired President John Walter
> after nine months, saying he lacked intellectual leadership. He received
a
> $26 million severance package. Perhaps it's not Walter who's lacking
> intelligence.
>
> 2. WITH A LITTLE HELP FROM OUR FRIENDS: Police in Oakland, California
spent
> two hours attempting to subdue a gunman who had barricaded himself inside
> his home. After firing ten tear gas canisters, officers discovered that
the
> man was standing beside them in the police line, shouting, "Please come
out
> and give yourself up."
>
> 3. WHAT WAS PLAN B??? An Illinois man, pretending to have a gun, kidnapped
a
> motorist and forced him to drive to two different automated teller
machines,
> wherein the kidnapper proceeded to withdraw money from his own bank
> accounts.
>
> 4. THE GETAWAY! A man walked into a Topeka, Kansas Kwik Stop, and asked
for
> all the money in the cash drawer. Apparently, the take was too small, so
he
> tied up the store clerk and worked the counter himself for three hours
until
> police showed up and grabbed him.
>
> 5. DID I SAY THAT??? Police in Los Angeles had good luck with a robbery
> suspect who just couldn't control himself during a lineup. When
detectives
> asked each man in the lineup to repeat the words: "Give me all your money
or
> I'll shoot," the man shouted, "That's not what I said!"
>
> 6. ARE WE COMMUNICATING?? A man spoke frantically into the phone, "My wife
> is pregnant and her contractions are only two minutes apart!" "Is this her
> first child?" the doctor asked. "No!" the man shouted, "This is her
> husband!"
>
> 7. NOT THE SHARPEST TOOL IN THE SHED!! In Modesto, California, Steven
> Richard King was arrested for trying to hold up a Bank of America branch
> without a weapon. King used a thumb and a finger to simulate a gun, but

(hellllllooooooo!)
>
> 8. THE GRAND FINALE (I LOVE THIS ONE!!!) Last summer, down on Lake
Isabella,
> located in the high desert, an hour east of Bakersfield, California, some
> folks, new to boating, were having a problem. No matter how hard they
> tried, they couldn't get their brand new 22 ft. boat going. It was very
> sluggish in almost every maneuver, no matter how much power was applied.
> After about an hour of trying to make it go, they putted to a nearby
marina,
> thinking someone there could tell them what was wrong. A thorough topside
> check revealed everything in perfect working condition. The engine ran
fine,
> the out drive went up and down, and the prop was the correct size and
pitch.
> So, one of the marina guys jumped in the water to check underneath. He
came
> up choking on water, he was laughing so hard. NOW REMEMBER... THIS IS TRUE
> .... Under the boat, still strapped securely in place, was the trailer.
>
>
> Does any one else find it frightening the majority of these took place in
> California??
