I saw this news article and thought everyone might get a chuckle out of it.


Police: Armed burglars demand man's eggbeater


TAMPA, Fla. – It really must have been a special item. According to the Hillsborough County Sheriff's Office, two men entered a man's home early Sunday and demanded his eggbeater. One suspect was holding a pistol while the other brandished a knife to the resident's neck.
Police caught the men outside the home and they are being held in Orient Road Jail. One suspect also faces a charge of aggravated assault.
Police found the eggbeater in the man's left pocket.

Looks like they moved the story but I found it, Sis.

It seems the one was claiming that the other was egging him on. 

Apparently they were both rotten eggs though.

When these two guys go to jail, I can just imagine what the others will say.
What are you in for?
Armed Robbery.
What did you steal?
An eggbeater.

They will probably get the blank beat out of them. There are some real fruit loops in this World

If they're smart (and the robbery has already proven they are NOT) they'll keep mum on why they're doing time!

This should be a PSA.  Children, this is your brain on drugs.  Any questions?
