Subject: RE: Come you pranksters, fess up!
My brother, a policeman in Eastern Canada, was asked by his commanding officer (who was leaving on holidays for a few weeks) to keep an eye on the house, feed the pets and water the plants. Seems the CO's prized possession, a fully-restored 1957 Chevy was parked in the garage. Bro rummaged around until he found the keys, drove to the local shopping mall and had a secret meeting with the manager. CO comes back from holidays as scheduled and the next morning phones bro in a panic asking where the car was. "I don't know" was the reply. So began the search. Two or three days later, the CO is walking through the mall and comes across a table with a sign advertising the sale of raffle tickets. The main prize, parked behind the table, was a fully-restored 1957 Chevy!
