Two Irishmen rob a bank and all they get away with are two sacks, so they keep one each. After awhile they meet again and one asks the other, "What did you find in your sack?" "Half a million" "Aw... that's a lot! What did you do with the cash?" "I bought a house. How about your sack?" "Bah... it was full o' bills" "And what did you do with them?" "Eh well . . . little by little, I'm paying them off . . ."

Wrong number leads to heavy breathing Published: January 12, 2005, 9:09 AM PST By Reuters Oklahoma highway users trying to call the state about electronic payment passes were mistakenly directed to a sex hotline. In a letter sent to 41,000 people, Oklahoma Transportation Authority spokeswoman Brigette Berglan said the state's turnpike authority had made an error. One digit was wrong in the telephone number for callers seeking advice on how to deal with toll gate payments. Instead, they found themselves calling a sex line where they could speak with "exciting people," such as lonely housewives, students and fantasy girls, for $2.99 a minute. "We're not that exciting here at the authority," Berglan said. "We prefer to think of ourselves as helpful." Those who received the incorrect notice were sent a postcard with the correct number. news.com.com
