I decided after the way the weekend was -- including being insulted by someone who I count as a friend (like I need that) as well as Firefox acting badly -- that digging through the archives for hours was not an attractive option as I am currently having some computer problems. Soooooooo I decided to pull out a 'golden oldie'. It's a gem and if it doesn't make y'all grin, I suggest you get your funny bone checked.
A workman was killed at a construction site. The Crime Scene Investigation team arrived and began questioning a number of the other workers. Based on past brushes with the law, many of these workers were considered prime suspects. They were a motley crew:
* The electrician was suspected of wiretapping once but was never charged.
* The carpenter thought he was a stud. He tried to frame another man one time.
* The glazier went to great panes to conceal his past. He still claims that he didn't do anything, that he was framed.
* The painter had a brush with the law several years ago.
* The heating, ventilation & air conditioning contractor was known to pack heat. He was arrested once but duct the charges.
* The mason was suspect because he gets stoned regularly.
* The cabinet maker is an accomplished counter fitter.
The autopsy led the police to arrest the carpenter, who subsequently confessed. The evidence against him was irrefutable. Why, you ask?
Because it was found that the workman, when he died, was hammered!
Happy Blogging!!!!!
