Well...Dam!

GREENSBURG, La. - Beavers found a bag of bills stolen from a casino, tore it open and wove the money into the sticks and brush of their dam on a creek near Baton Rouge.



"They hadn't torn the bills up. They were still whole," said Maj. Michael Martin of the East Feliciana Parish Sheriff's Office.


The money was part of at least $70,000 taken last week from the Lucky Dollar Casino in Greensburg, about 30 miles northeast of Baton Rouge.


Sheriff's deputies in St. Helena Parish, where the truck stop video poker casino is located, have accused a security guard at the casino of disabling its security cameras. Jacqueline Wall, 25, was booked with felony theft, Martin said.


She told investigators a ski-masked gunman made her help him empty all the casino's safes, then kidnapped her, knocked her out and left her in an uninhabited area in East Feliciana Parish.


Deputies had searched for the money for days before an attorney called with a tip: the money had been thrown into the creek. The attorney's client hopes to make a deal with prosecutors, Greensburg Police Chief Ronald Harrell said.


They found one money bag right away. The second was downstream, against the beaver dam.


After trying unsuccessfully to find the third bag in the deep water near the dam, Martin said, deputies began to break it down to release some of the water so they could search in a shallower pool.


That was when they saw the dam's expensive decoration.


He said they eventually found the third sack, which still had some money left in it.


"The casino people were elated" to get the money back, even if some of it was wet, Harrell said.


Deputies found about $40,000, and expected to find the rest in a safety deposit box at a bank in Mississippi.


Fun news

I understand the IRS has sent an agent over to talk to the beavers about the taxes due on the money they acquired.

LOL! I like it!

I lost a couple of £10 notes once. After hunting high and low for them I found them in the middle of the livingroom carpet. It turned out that the dog had had an accident and felt so embarrassed by what he'd done that he'd decided to cover it up with whatever scraps of paper he could find.
Of course, the notes were unusable afterwards. Would this count as the world's most expensive shit?

Throw it in the washing machine. Currency washes. I'd do it for 20 pounds worth of Guinness!

I just want to know how beavers got a safe deposit box at the bank.

And with all that money you'd think the coulda bought some congrete and built a proper dam.

What were they thinkin'?

I think the Beavers have a good case.

I heard nothing about any search warrant procured by the Sherriff's Office. Nor did having such a warrant give them the right to needlessly destroy private property.

Considering the contested monies involved in this case, no doubt the Beavers can access reasonable legal council who will work on a contingency fee.

Are they quite sure that the money is the stolen currency? I hear that you can make quite a lot of money selling beaver ...

Colly, you done did good. Makes a fella proud to be from Louisiana. The problem is this has so many possibilities, and we've barely scratched the Beaver, uh, surface.

Little Beaver just told Red Rider to get fucked.

Now we know why those Beavers were so damn busy.

Leave It To (the) Beaver

That Beaver is way too pricey for me. Even French Quarter hookers have gotta be less.

That's what I've been told. But I doubt if any of those "soiled doves" ever charged 40K.

Money laundering! Literally.

Shit. You owe me a monitor cleaning, Shanglan. Good coffee dripping all over it dammit!

 

[Lisa Denton]

The damn beavers didn't steal the money, they found it fair and square, they was innocent. I think them pigs fucked the beavers, uh, so to speak, by taking their money.

 

[Guest]

I think the pigs were just pussy footin' around and got hog tied so they made scapegoats out of the beavers because the shark at the casino was hounding them to find the loot that had been cat burgled.

Sounds kinda fishy if you asp me.

Dranoel,

That's a pretty damn animalistic way to put things. I believe, "...you asp me." is undergoing further review for Lit suitability.

Eeeeeeek!!!! Your an animal Dranoel!!!!

How can you make fun at these poor little beavers gettin all pounded by pigs?

Beavers are a little strange, they fuck around and you can't tell what they might do when the fur starts flyin, but they are usually nice if you pet em once in a while.

 

[SeaCat]

Good God, nothing like a little money to get some wet beaver huh?

My poor wife thinks I've flipped, I'm reading this thread and laughing.

On another note, I can be considered to be in heaven. Both of our cats are on the bed with my wife. Three pussies all together.

It sounds about as convincing as everybody in Bombay knows Gupta.

Thank you, Colly. Very enjoyable thread (nearly as profound as Gauche's "yeah yeah yeah" ).
