I've been telling that one on stage for years. Mine involves A guy named Joseph who went looting and pillaging through the streets of Haifa and while doing that, shot Mayor Newton of that town dead. The police killed him. Digging into his past they found out that his mother had been in a convent in Barcelona and he had sometimes worked as a farm laborer. The caption under his photo in the paper said Haifa lootin' Newton shootin', son of a nun from Barcelona, part-time plowboy, Joe.

Come to think of it, I'm pretty sure I put this into another thread a year or two ago...

Did ya ever hear the one with the punchline: transporting gulls across a sedate lion for immortal porpoises!? Now write a story to go with it and I'll let you know the one I tell with it.
