Indiana Cojones

(And The Temple Of Doom)

Indiana man Kevin Russell found out it's not easy trying to cash a cheque from God. Yes, that's right. From God. No kidding. Police said Russell was arrested after he tried to redeem the cheque for $50,000 at the Chase Bank in Hobart that was signed ``King Saviour, King of Kings, Lord of Lords, Servant.''
It was written on an invalid Bank One cheque with no imprint, officers said. Russell had several other cheques with him that were signed the same way but made out in different dollar amounts, including one for $100,000.
Russell struggled with police as they tried to detain him, White said, and then threatened his captors. ``I've heard about God giving out eternal life, but this is the first time I've heard of him giving out cash,'' Detective Jeff White said.

Note to self: Change plans for Monday morning. New evidence suggests it won't work.
