This should have been posted in the Joke thread but the last few posts are anything but jokes. And it is nice to know that things are still much the same as when I lived down there. By the way, a person who lives in Fresno sent me this.
This happened on a flight ready to depart for Fresno, California.
Jack was sitting when a guy took the seat beside him. The guy was an emotional wreck, pale, hands shaking, moaning in fear. 'What's the matter?' Jack asked.
'I've been transferred to Fresno, there's nothing but crazy people there. I hear they have a lot of shootings, gangs, race riots, drugs, illegals, poor public schools, crowded Wal-Marts, and a high crime rate'
Jack replied, 'I've lived in Fresno all my life It's not as bad as the media says. Find a nice home, go to work, mind your own business and enroll your kids in a nice private school. It's as safe a place as anywhere in the world.'
The guy finally relaxed and said, 'Thank you. I've been worried to death, but if you live there and say it's OK, I'll take your word for it.
By the way, what do you do for a living?'
'Me?' said Jack. 'I'm a tail gunner on a Budweiser truck.'
