Let’s Bounce!
ROLEX HAS A FORD
BOUNCING SOMETHING
THAT DIDN’T CHECK OUT!
09.27.2011
Memphis, Tennessee
Shelby County’s Commissioner and once interim mayor bounce his way to the Shelby County Jail today after a local jeweler filed a warrant to have him arrested for bouncing a check totaling $1,500 as a down payment on 2 Rolex watches. The jeweler said the check was presented twice at his bank and bounced both times. They tried calling Mr. Ford, as he promised to take care of the situation-- but never did. So away the commissioner went and turned himself in. He served only a few hours in jail and was released without bond. He said there was a misunderstanding and will resolve the debt. However he will be in court this morning. If he is convicted of theft and bad checks he could get bounced with serving out 12 years behind the cells. Ford is also a bouncing candidate in the Memphis City Mayor’s race in the upcoming election.
“Bouncing checks for Rolex!” Hey…he got it like that.
The little thief guy would probably still be in jail…

AN ARROW BOUNCES FROM
THE AIR TO
THE GROUND

Murpheesboro, Tennessee
A small class of students in Middle Tennessee attended a class fair which was lots of fun until a mysterious arrow landed only bouncing inches away from piercing a student. “The arrow came out of nowhere.” said the student. Although there was a search around to find the culprit they bounced up with no clues. Left a bit frightened the students continued on with the fair of the day. The authorities thought the prank was not a bounce bit funny.
