a small thing I said really my my bags
are pretty full it's a small thing okay
so bring it over are you home now we'll
put it through the mail slot and he
would say it won't fit I said that I'm
not taking it okay
so this person calls me up and says can

she same as she's getting married I said

them it makes me very nervous to take
cash no it's under the limit it's not
the point I'd rather not and my wife
said to me you know but we're going into
smear this is real money anyway so I
take the money
it's in my pocket and I have this thing
when I come through the metal detector
everything Rings everything just rings I
go through again and again and again and
finally the man says Me Maybe you have
cash in your pocket a lot of people that
have cash in their pocket it rings
constantly so I I tuck it into my
suitcase into the outside pocket of my
suitcase and I closed the zipper and it
goes right through and
as we get there we get to the gate I
open up the zipper and I put my hand in
and the money's gone it's not there the
face turns red all the even come running
over I don't know how they already knew
exactly what happened you know and
everyone says go back go back go back
and I go back and I start arguing with
them and they say no you got to bring
all your suitcases and we got to go
through it and we gotta check it it's a
whole long story and don't ask what
happened maybe open up one of my
suitcase and take everything out and uh
