Subject: RE: BS: Give us more PUNishment! (Puns II)
A multi-billionaire decided to have himself cloned by a special accelerated process which, in a short while gave him a younger, adult version of himself. Unfortunately, there had been a slight error which left the clone somewhat "anti-social", he/it would curse and swear on each and every occasion, had a habit of "flashing" members of the public, "mooning" from cars and making gestures at almost everybody who came in contact. Fortunately the original was rich enough to afford to keep the whole matter hushed up, but it was becoming harder to do and mor embarrassing so he thought to dispose of his clone and, being somewhat "hands-on" he had to do it himself. For months he tried to work out the best way to dispose of his "offspring" and hit on a plan, the two of them were to go on a trip to their private Carribean island, on the way there the older man pushed the younger from the plane into the sea where he drowned and the body was eaten by fish, unfortunately this was witnessed and reported. After great expediture on lawyers and arguments that a) there were no record of the clone anywhere and that he didn't legally exist and b)The clone was genetically 100% the older man and therefore the crime was merely a form of suicide (and due to some very large "back-handers")the murder charge was dropped, but a offence had been committed and the rich man was charged with
(prepare to groan)
Making an obscene clone fall.

Apologies
