I tell you, TIS, the world's stupidest criminals are here in Arizona. You can't make this stuff up.

One I remember from a few years ago: Local paper's headline: "Police Warn of Counterfeiting." Story said a guy tried to pass a phony bill at a McDonald's in the area. "Police called it a poor-quality Xerox--the front was a $50, the back was a $20."

I suppose the guy came in and asked the cashier: "Uh, can you gimme change for a Fifty?" When she said no, he turned it over and said, "How about a Twenty?"
