A blonde was down on her luck. In order to raise some money, she decided to kidnap a kid and hold him for ransom. She went to the playground, grabbed a kid, took him behind a tree, and told him, "I've kidnapped you." Then she wrote a note saying, "I've kidnapped your kid. Tomorrow morning, put $10,000 in a paper bag, and put it under the pecan tree next to the slide on the north side of the playground." She signed it: A Blonde. The blonde then pinned the note to the kid's shirt and sent him home to show it to his parents. The next morning the blonde checked, and sure enough, a paper bag was sitting beneath the pecan tree. The blonde opened up the bag and found the $10,000 cash with a note that said, "How could you do this to another blonde?" Last Wishes A woman was talking to her friends about her husband who had passed away. When her husband was on his death bed, he told her that he had three envelopes in his desk drawer that would "take care" of all of the arrangements. Well, he died shortly thereafter, so the wife opened the drawer and there were 3 envelopes just like he said. One the first envelope it said "for the casket". There was $5,000.00 in the envelope, so she bought him a very nice casket. The second envelope said "for the expenses" and had $4,000.00 in it so she paid all the bills from the funeral. The third envelope said "for the stone" and had $3,000.00 in it. She then held her hand out to her friends and said, "Isn't it Beautiful!!!" =========================================
