joke worth reading
so this guy is in a pawn shop, and he's looking to spend his last $3. after some looking around, he finds a golden rat sitting on the top shelf. He helps himself to a step ladder, gets it down, and brings it to the guy who owns the shop. "$3, brother" "great!" says our friend, "thats exactly what I got in my pocket." the pawn shop dude is about to ring it up, when he has a thought. "you know, I really should tell you the story behind this rat." our friend responds, "no, its alrite, I'm kind of in a rush." "brother, the guy who sold it to me told me not to sell it to anyone unless I told them the story." Our friend, getting annoyed at the clerk, says "it doesn't matter. here's your $3, I've really got to go!" As our friend storms out of the shop, the guy yells "well, don't say I didn't warn you!"
so our friend throws the golden rat in his car trunk and goes to leave. As he's pulling out of the parking lot onto the main drag, he notices things moving in his rear view mirror. He looks very closely, and then realizes he is being followed by a sea of rats. Nervous and freaked out, he speeds up, but to his horror the rats speed up too - and are actually gaining on him! He puts his pedal to the medal and speeds away. Eventually, he starts getting away from the mob of rats, but his speeding his brought him to a dead-end - in front of him is a giant cliff. He comes to a screaching halt and does the only thing he thinks sensible - takes the golden rat and tosses it off the cliff, down hundreds and hundreds of feet. As the rats come closer, he braces for impact, but they run right past him and jump off the cliff!
Amazed and astonished, he drives back to the pawn shop. The guy behind the counter goes "So, you want to know the story behind the golden rat now?" Our friend looks at him and says "No, not really. I just have one question." "yes?" replies the guy.
"do you have any golden republicans?"
