Counterfeit $10 Bill

A Henry County student will soon find out if she faces expulsion for giving a counterfeit $10 bill to a teacher selling candy for a fund-raiser. As a public service here are the TOP FIVE signs you are holding a counterfeit Ten Dollar bill:

5—No U.S. Treasury building on the back. Instead, a Waffle House.

4—Across the top on the back it reads, “United States of America”. (No, wait a minute, that’s a WORTHLESS ten dollar bill.)

3—In place of Alexander Hamilton on the front, you see Al Franken.

2—The serial number is 867-5309JENNY

1—Four words … “In Government We Trust.”

Spiff Sports

Former Atlanta Brave and now Houston Astros’ outfielder Jordan Schafer has been arrested in Florida and charged with felony possession of marijuana. A police report says that black Land Rover driven by Schafer with its windows open pulled up next to a police car. Officers noticed a strong marijuana smell and saw Schafer smoking some wacky- tobaccy. Schafer admitted smoking marijuana and that he had more in the vehicle. A search turned up less than an ounce in a plastic container and a small amount inside “three small marijuana peanut butter cups”. WOW! I know whose house I will be “trick or treating” at this Halloween! Schafer was suspended for the first 50 games back in 2008 for a violation of baseball’s drug policy. There have been signs along the way that Schafer was having problems. If only his former Braves teammates could have noticed these tell-tale signs during their conversations with Jordan.

--Teammate: “Look, the bases are loaded.” --Schafer: “So am I.”

--Teammate: “I love the smell of freshly cut grass at Turner Field.” --Schafer: “And in my apartment.”

--Teammate: “We’re going into the bottom of the third.” --Schafer: “I’m already at the bottom of my fifth.”

--Teammate: “What song did you pick to be played as you walk up to the plate?” --Schafer: “Don’t Bogart that Joint, My Friend.”

Dufus of the Day

(Snellville, Georgia) 21-year-old Stephen Daniel walked into a gas station and told the manager behind the counter to give him all the money in the register. The manager started putting the money in a bag . . . and also started LAUGHING. Why? Because Stephen clearly hadn't bothered to take a look around before the robbery . . . or he would've realized there was a Police Officer in line right behind him. After the manager handed Stephen the money, the officer . . . Lieutenant B.W. Brown from the Snellville police . . . grabbed him by the shoulder and placed him under arrest. You can bet that Stephen will be looking over his shoulder when in the slammer. If you know what I mean.

A Tuesday Top Five

Randy & Spiff were “let go” yesterday from that radio station where they were drawing a paycheck. After years and years of getting up early to “Wake Up” the nice folks in Georgia, their routines have changed a bit. With that in mind, here are the TOP FIVE things Spiff Carner did this morning:

5—Set alarm clock for 3:30, wake up, toss clock in toilet, flush, go back to sleep.

4—Breakfast. Which beer do I try this morning?

3—Begin composing new country song, “Jobs may come and jobs may go but you’ll always be my baby.”

2—Call former radio station and attempt to win those much coveted fair tickets.

1—Look in mirror, notice unsightly nose hairs and say “Screw it!”

Good Morning!

WOW! What have we been missing all these years by getting up soooooo early. Life is good. Day one of a new adventure. Randy & Spiff ... Free Agents!

Breaking News!

Not to be confused with Breaking Wind! This just in! Randy & Spiff have been "let go" from Atlanta's Greatest Hits. This morning was our last radio show on 106.7. Thanks to all of our incredible, loyal listeners and friends who made going to work each morning so much fun. Without you we would not have survived in Atlanta for so many years. You are the very best! Who knows, we may even surface again on a radio near you. In the meantime, you can keep track of us here at www.spiffhappens.com or www.randyandspiff.blogspot.com. Company was sold. Strictly a business decision on the new owners part. Randy and I will be both FINE and DANDY. Too many blessings all around us to worry about a little speed bump like losing a job.

The CD Cover game


The next time you are snowbound or just bored, try this little game to produce your very own CD Cover. Got this from a friend and made a couple slight changes to the rules:


1 --- Randomly choose a photo of yours.


2 --- Go to Wikipedia and hit "Random article." The title of the first random Wikipedia article you get is the name of your band.


3 --- Go to
http://quotationspage.com/ and hit "Random Quotes." The last four or five words of the very last quote of the page is the title of your first album.


4 --- Use any photo editor to put it together.
Here is how mine turned out.
