The Mafia was looking
for a new man to make weekly
collections from
all the private businesses that they were
‚protecting‘.
Feeling the heat from the police force, they decided to use
a deaf
person for this job. If he were to get caught, he wouldn’t
be able to
communicate to the police what he was doing.
Well,
on his first week, the deaf collector picks up over $50,000.
He
gets greedy, decides to keep the money and stashes it in a safe
place.
The Mafia soon realizes that their collection is late, and
sends some
of their hoods after the deaf collector. The hoods find the
deaf
collector and ask him where the money is. The deaf collector
can’t
communicate with them, so the Mafia drags the guy to an
interpreter.
The Mafia hood says to the interpreter, „Ask him where the
money is.“
The interpreter signs, „Where’s the money?“
r
The deaf replies, „I don’t know what you’re talking about.“
The
interpreter tells the hood, „He says he doesn’t know what
you’re
talking about.“
The hood pulls out a large gun and places it
in the ear of the deaf
collector. „NOW ask him where the money is.“
The interpreter signs, „Where is the money?“
The deaf
man replies, „The $50,000 is in Central Park, hidden in the
third tree
stump on the left from the West 78th Street gate .“
The
interpreter says to the hood, „He says he still doesn’t know what
you’re
talking about, and doesn’t think you have the guts to pull
the
trigger.“
