Money Laundering Service Needed

No, not for us here at Blue Crab Boulevard. We haven't any to launder. An elderly German man, however, really needs the service. And we're not talking about anything illegal - we mean a real laundry with soap and everything.

It seems the retired gentleman had stacks of old German currency laying about his apartment. The deutschemark was replaced by the Euro in 1992, so the man figured the cash was worthless and flushed it down the toilet. Since currency doesn't dissolve like toilet paper, the inevitable happened and the sewer line plugged. Which is actually good for the man, since workers were able to recover some 60,000 deutschemarks. They can be exchanged for around 30,000 Euros.

The man apparently dried the notes and took them to a bank. Nobody is sure if he laundered them first.

On second thought, don't wash it. Burn it……
