That could be my ex-wife dressed like my ex-wife
in an attempt to make people think she is my ex-wife's husband dressed like my ex-wife.

Look at the image and tell me who it is.

"Brothers & Sisters I have none."
"That Man's Father is my Father's son."

Who, pray tell, is the man in the Photo??

How much money did he/she get away with?

A robbery on tax free weekend, thousands of vehicles full of kiddies wanting to go to lunch,I'm surprised they made it there in nine minutes. This particular weekend is almost as busy as Black Friday and December 26.
