    Man accused of trying to cash check for $360,000,000,000


    Wednesday, April 30, 2008


    From Staff Reports

    A man has been accused of attempting to pass a $360 billion check, which he claims was given to him by his girlfriend’s mother to start a record business, Fort Worth police said.

    Charles Ray Fuller, 21, of Crowley, was arrested on April 22 on an accusation of forgery, police said.

    Police responded to a report of a man attempting to pass the check about 4 p.m. that day at the Chase bank in the 8600 block of South Hulen Street, Fort Worth police Lt. Paul Henderson said.

    The personal check was not made out to Mr. Fuller and when the bank contacted the check owner, the woman said she did not write a check for $360 billion.

    Mr. Fuller was also accused of unlawful carrying of a weapon and possession of marijuana, Lt. Henderson said. He may also face a theft charge in Crowley.

    Lt. Henderson said he did not know if Mr. Fuller and his girlfriend were still together.

    Boy, oh boy would I love to hear how that conversation with the bank teller went. I don't know, maybe Steel can give it to us.

    And his vote counts just as much as yours or mine...
    Games are won on run differential -- scoring more than your opponent. Runs are runs, scored or prevented they all count the same. Worry about scoring more and allowing fewer, not which positions contribute to which side of the equation or how "consistent" you are at your current level of performance.

    It reminds me of the old Bob & Ray routine about the bank teller whose paycheck was made out wrong, for millions and millions of dollars and the bank is pleading with her not to cash it because it will ruin them, etc.

    Darwin Award nominee - walk into a bank and try to cash a multi-billion dollar personal check from your girlfriend with a firearm and marijuana on you.

    Nice! The guy's just begging to be put in jail.

    I liked the last line:

    "Lt. Henderson said he did not know if Mr. Fuller and his girlfriend were still together.'

    Since it was his girlfriend's mom, I'm kind of doubting those 2 crazy kids are gonna stay together.
