FUNNY MONEY: Charles Lee was asleep in his Des Moines, Iowa, home when he heard his 87-year-old mother screaming in her bedroom. He rushed in to find a burglar had come in through the window. "I snatched him and was dragging him through the house to take him outside and [whip] him a little," Lee said, when the burglar offered him $100 to let him go. Lee looked at the $100 bill and noticed its portrait depicted president George W. Bush. "Yeah, the guy was trying to bribe me with fake money," Lee says. Police charged Michael Castiglione, 37, with second-degree burglary. (AP) ...And first degree chutzpah.

That's what I'm talking about! Take him out back and whip him! LOL. Someone wants to break in my house, they're going to have to deal with me too while waiting on the cops to show up. :wink:

I don't blame him. I hope he whipped the guy a few extra times just for stupidity.
