New Yorkers
Published Jun 12, 2003
New Yorkers are a breed apart.
A man was mugged but had no cash. Afraid he'd be hurt, he made a statement, "S-s-sir, I don't have any cash on me!"
The mugger said, "NO CASH? Everybody in New York has cash!"
The victim replied, "I'm sorry, I got paid yesterday, but my rent was due. It took the whole check."
He offered to write the guy a check.
The mugger was dumbfounded, "A Check? Why would I take a check from you?"
"Well, you mugged me, didn't you?"
"I don't even know you!"
